Fines Bill 2009: From the Seanad
In taking account of financial circumstances in determining the amount of the fine, the court is given wide scope so as to arrive at a fair assessment of the person's means. The term "financial circumstances" is defined in section 12 and comprises income, assets, liabilities, moneys owing and such other circumstances as the court considers appropriate.
