Clare Daly (Dublin Fingal, Independent) | Oireachtas source

The committee has finished its deliberations on penal reform and we have a packed agenda so there is no way we will be able to squeeze this in. We are putting the onus back on the Minister and we do not know who the Minister will be. I accept the bona fides of the current Minister but we need this to be in the lap of the Department of Justice and Equality from tonight, because it is long overdue.
