Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse (Amendment) Bill 2005: From the Seanad.
12:00 pm
Paul Gogarty (Dublin Mid West, Green Party)
I am glad the error was spotted. In fairness to those involved in drafting the legislation, nobody in this Chamber spotted the error. Unfortunately with legislation of this import which can have far-reaching consequences, it could be a matter of life and death. I welcome the fact that it is changing. I hope the Minister of State is about to say that the issue of the Ombudsman will be covered under legislation dealing with the Office of the Ombudsman. If not, can we have a good excuse?
