Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

General Scheme of the Irish Prison Service Bill and of the Criminal Justice (Legal Aid) Bill: Discussion

There are significant delays in getting psychiatric reports before trial in the Central Criminal Court. This is causing subsequent delays, with cases frequently being adjourned at that stage. I imagine the position is similar at the earlier stage in the criminal process that the Deputy mentioned.
