Clare Daly: On a slightly different point, the Minister, through no fault of her own, also missed the start of the meeting. One of the main points that arises in this regard is that the directive uses the word "shall". If members are to be denied the right to table amendments that propose broadening the definition of the investigating authority, I appeal to the Government to review the matter before...

Clare Daly: I move amendment No. 34:In page 11, line 30, before "information" to insert "all relevant". As it stands, the legislation provides that victims will be provided with information, which is a little vague. We are all trying to address this issue in slightly different ways.

Clare Daly: I move amendment No. 70:In page 17, line 12, to delete “who is resident in the State”. This amendment is about removing residence as a condition and to remove the words "who is resident in the State".
