- Extension of the Civil Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2021: Motion (24 May 2023)
Catherine Murphy: The Minister of State has told us it is intended to include this in the general scheme of the sale of alcohol Bill. It could be an issue that gets lost in that context because there are planning issues with this and with good streetscapes. This was a worthwhile initiative during Covid and there is no doubt there is a public appetite for having outdoor seating for both restaurants and pubs....
- Court Proceedings (Delays) Bill 2023: Second Stage (24 May 2023)
Catherine Murphy: In the past year, the Minister of State has brought forward several items of legislation, much of it to do with issues where we have a gun to our heads, such as, for example, where fines are likely to be imposed or where we have not done things in a timely way. To the Minister of State's credit, he has been trying to clear the backlog. This also falls into that category in that there is...

Vote 24 – Justice (25 May 2023) Catherine Murphy: Okay. Obviously, the European Commission, the Council of Europe and the OECD cited concerns with this. What engagement was there? Did they direct the Department? Obviously, it was terminated very suddenly. There are still a residual number of cases going through. Essentially, were we directed to close it down?

Vote 24 – Justice (25 May 2023) Catherine Murphy: Obviously, there are positives in terms of investments. There are also questions about some of the investments. If somebody bought a house in Dublin, for example, the value of property is such that it would not take much to qualify for the upper threshold.

Vote 24 – Justice (25 May 2023) Catherine Murphy: I want to move on to another issue. I saw an article in one of the tabloids today, namely, The Mirror, the photograph accompanying which showed gardaí on patrol in Disneyland in Paris. I understand there can be deployments, and very understandably so, where there is international co-operation. Would the Department be asked for sanction for this or is it entirely up to the Garda...
