Committee on Children and Equality
General Scheme of the Equality (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: Discussion (Resumed)
2:00 am
Mr. Andrew Holohan:
It is funny Ms Gorman said that, because where we live there is a little courtyard and three weeks ago I was sitting down and my kids were playing and I was holding a soccer ball when the security guard came up and stood over me. He said nothing. He just stood and waited because there is a sign up saying, "No ball games". That is another real-life example of discrimination. I see people down there with frisbees and scooters and I felt I was intimidated out of the courtyard back up into my apartment.
