Domestic Violence (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Committee and Remaining Stages.

 

Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

Yes, it is. I feel this is something that an individual could contest. I would not be surprised if another Supreme Court decision is handed down saying that the matter is unconstitutional. It restricts both the applicant's and the respondent's ability to protect themselves and to have the protection of the court.

Amendment put and declared lost.
