Criminal Justice (Terrorist Offences) Bill 2002: From the Seanad.
12:00 pm
Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)
The Special Criminal Court will deal with many of these offences. Offences relating to firearms and other weapons are outlined in the Schedule, with reference to the Firearms Act 1925. Section 30 of that Act, dealing with the accommodation of firearms, requires amendment rather than the Criminal Justice Bill 2004. I say that jocosely, but having seen a presentation on the matter, the 1925 Act should be re-examined with a view to introducing further conditions. The Minister must give more information on the proposals for a second Special Criminal Court.
