Social Welfare (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2010: Report and Final Stages
6:00 pm
Joe Carey (Clare, Fine Gael)
The Minister is missing the point. Our prisons are overcrowded but we continue to imprison people who do not have the capacity to pay fines. This amendment offers an opportunity to address that situation, but the Minister is refusing to do so. I hope he will reconsider.
