Vote 22 - Courts Service (13 Jul 2017)

Alan Kelly: Thank you. Do people see the way I am treated? What system is in place for Oireachtas Members to ask genuine questions about court awards? If there is no formal system in place, will the witnesses consider putting one in place? That might ease everyone's lives a little as such issues arise frequently.
