Charles Flanagan (Laois, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

This was the subject matter of detailed questioning earlier. I would have liked it if the Deputy had been present, or had tabled a question. He is, however, correct that I have received the advice of the Attorney General. A cross-governmental group is dealing with this issue and it involves a number of stakeholders and interested parties. I am keen to bring forward proposals that are workable and which will meet the needs of this serious issue in society.
