Companies (Corporate Enforcement Authority) Bill 2021: Second Stage (Resumed) (21 Sep 2021)

Danny Healy-Rae: All right. I should also mention that corporate enforcement did not always help people when someone got into trouble and went bankrupt. They did not help the people on the ground who lost their money, maybe sums of €20,000, €60,000, €70,000, €80,000 or €90,000.

Deputy...

Danny Healy-Rae: I believe we are elected here to do a different type of work altogether. We were elected to represent people that need caring or that need to go into hospital.
