Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

——and the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform has done a U-turn in respect of his vanity on the home defence situation. In view of the Law Reform Commission's report and recommendation, will the Government make a single-line amendment to the relevant legislation so owners of property will not be required to retreat in the event of an invasion of their privacy or a break-in by would-be burglars? Single-line legislation would not cost anything and the issue is not a constitutional matter.
