Mr. Adam Boyle:

We do not have a means in Irish law for class actions. Unfortunately, where there are fundamental failures if we want the courts to review the behaviour of the State that often involves individual cases. The history of constitutional law which have determined cases involves people's last names versus the State. I would love if we were here to discuss class actions and the means by which we would fundamentally change the Irish legal system, but it is important to note that when we refer to individual actions, it must be recognised that such actions are part of our system for systemic change and they always have been in Irish law.
