I want to raise an issue of most urgency, that is, the need to enact this week in this House the Proceeds of Crime (Gross Human Rights Abuses) Bill 2020, which has been passed on Second Stage. It would expand our proceeds of crime legislation, which established the Criminal Assets Bureau, CAB, to capture the ill-gotten goods of oligarchs, officials and anybody else involved in human rights abuses. It is a signal that this House should give. I ask that the Taoiseach reflect on that and provide time so that all parties which supported the Bill on Second Stage could enact it this week.
