Unclaimed Life Assurance Policies Bill 2002: Committee Stage.

 

As I said this morning, it is almost like somebody in the 16th century proposing the employment of the town crier to go around and tell people, because they did not really believe the printing press would work. If the State existed in the 1890s this kind of legislation would have proposed publicising in two newspapers circulating in the State. We are not in the 1900s but in 2003 and we are using the same sort of words.
