Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: The Minister's amendment No. 7 obviously removes what we put into the Bill. I was going to ask the Minister that if he was going to object to our provision whether he had contacted the office of the European Data Protection Supervisor in the meantime about us placing an obligation in law for its involvement. He has done so, and it nails the argument. There is nothing more we can do on...

Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: I had not mentioned amendment No. 81 which Deputy O'Callaghan has just mentioned. It is our amendment which we tabled because we spotted that the provision on regulations under section 59 to respect the essence of the right to data protection and to restrict the exercise of data subject rights only insofar as is necessary or proportionate was accidentally deleted by the committee. The fact...

Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: Amendments Nos. 20 and 79 are not quite the same and I will deal with them separately. Amendment No. 2 is a redraft by the Government of our successful amendments at committee providing that regulations made under sections 50, 57 and 72 shall be the subject of positive resolution prior to being made. That is fine. We agree with that. Amendments Nos. 17, 19, 64 and 84 are slight...

Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: I appreciate that one can never say never. That the European Union may agree a definition is fine, but we are legislating in this Parliament. Germany has been able to produce a definition. I sought an assurance, insofar as is possible, that the issue would be examined. The Minister's response is on public record and he has been warned. If he does not heed our warning, the State may be...

Data Protection Bill 2018: Report Stage (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: I wish to make some brief points. Section 39 provides general permission for the processing of personal data for a range of what might be called research or historical purposes subject to suitable and specific measures being taken to safeguard the data. These measures are outlined in section 35. Section 51 takes this idea somewhat further. It provides that as long as the processing of...

Palestine: Statements (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: One of the hardest things to take for so many people around the world watching what is going on is the utter contradiction between the celebrations which were almost rubbing people's faces in it and the massacres on the other side. That juxtaposition has made what was already an horrific situation even worse. I note that the Tánaiste said he was shocked at the scale of the...

Leaders' Questions (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: I do not believe the Taoiseach listened to what I said. I genuinely do not blame him for anything that has happened before now. I am, however, going to blame him for what will happen next. On the day he announced that the Attorney General was being instructed to cease litigation in cervical cancer cases, a Kilkenny family who had appeared before the High Court went to the courts for the...

Leaders' Questions (15 May 2018)

Clare Daly: I also condemn the genocide perpetuated by the sectarian apartheid Israeli state against innocent Palestinians and I support the BDS campaign against that nation. I want to return to the cervical smear issue. The way in which this issue is being handled is an absolute disservice to the women at the heart of it and it is perpetuating a situation whereby we will not change things if we do...
