Ms Attracta U? Bhroin:

It is a very fair summary. To go back to the point made by Senator Boyhan on how hard it is going to be to please everybody all of the time, where there are conflicting interests, one has to ask why we are doing this in the first instance and to be able to go back to that fundamental question and purpose behind it. We need to be able to draw that line and say “Here, we need to do this because of this, although it may be a bit painful and we need to manage just transition”, or “Here, we can make accommodation because we feel more comfortable in the overall context”.

The other critical aspect of that, and we touched on it just after the Deputy left, is access to justice. It is not just clarity in regard to what is prescribed within the Bill; it is also the ability to be able to hold authorities to account for what they do or do not do under that Bill. It is also a critical element of enforcement in regard to the equivalent of section 160, where private individuals can take action and pursue enforcement action.
