Twenty-seventh Amendment of the Constitution Bill 2004: Second Stage (Resumed).
2:00 pm
Dan Neville (Limerick West, Fine Gael)
Does the Minister of State agree that Ireland is the second EU destination of more than 90% of those who arrive in Ireland to have a child — those about whom the Government is concerned? Such people arrive elsewhere in the EU and proceed to this State in order to give birth. Surely such people can be required, under the Dublin Convention, to return to their place of first destination in the EU.
