Martin Ferris (Kerry North, Sinn Fein)

Will the Taoiseach indicate if he will bring forward an amendment to the Criminal Evidence Act 1992, given the outcome of the Laura Kelly case, where a girl with special needs had a traumatic experience? It is an offence to have sexual intercourse with a mentally impaired person but the law is not specific on any other form of sexual offence against a person with special needs. Is it intended to bring forward legislation to block that loophole? If so, how soon will it be?
