Róisín Shortall: I will repeat what I said last night about everybody in this House being interested in and concerned about child protection. We all share the same objective.

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: ...constitute a significant proposal. As mentioned in the context of other legislation, there is an inequality of arms in the legal system. I am not just referring to the making of complaints to the Data Protection Commissioner but also to taking cases to court which can be difficult. If one does not have the money to do so, that remedy is beyond one's reach. Although it would not...
