Catherine Murphy: I assume the Minister appreciates it is quite difficult to know where to begin with this legislation because it is multifaceted.

Communications (Retention of Data) (Amendment) Bill 2022: Second Stage (5 Jul 2022)

Catherine Murphy: I have also tabled an amendment seeking a sunset clause. I think there are probably several of them.

I believe that Deputy Howlin's amendment is very generous with the...
