Dr. Conor Casey:

I agree with Dr. Hickey. Although I have reached the conclusion based on my understanding of the legal materials, that it is not within the constitutional competence, I have also written in my other work that the Oireachtas is often too timid in testing the bounds of its power, if it is so minded. Legal advice is just advice and opinions are just opinions. The Oireachtas is entitled to legislate and then speak, enter into dialogue with the court through any plans that may be made. I have also made that point in my other writings.
