Michael D'Arcy (Wexford, Fine Gael)

The Minister has said there are 13 contracts for children, three orders for adults and three orders for children, which indicates a complete failure of that system and the time spent in this Chamber debating legislation. The legislation is not being implemented. When will the legislation be implemented properly so that people can be safe in their homes and not be intimidated week in, week out? The gardaí must deal with them in such cases.
