Victims' Rights Bill 2008: Second Stage.
8:00 pm
Dermot Ahern (Louth, Fianna Fail)
Lest one think that other jurisdictions are more committed to the rights of victims than we are, I draw attention to the fact that the New Zealand legislation does not create enforceable rights of victims. Where Fine Gael has deviated in the Bill from the New Zealand legislation, it has hardly been radical or far-reaching.
