Leaders' Questions
10:30 am
Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)
Deputy Kenny is correct. For a number of years in this country, one quarter has been set down as the proportion of remission to be granted. As I understand the matter, it is not set out in legislation but has been the procedure. The equivalent period in Britain is one third, while it ranges between one quarter and one third in other countries.
