Prison Visiting Committees: Motion.
10:30 am
Michael McDowell (Dublin South East, Progressive Democrats)
I am glad to see this motion recites the fact that participation in party politics should not be a bar to appointment. What amuses me most is that in the six to eight months that I have been the holder of this office not one Member of the Oireachtas, who is not a member of the Government parties, has bothered to suggest one person to me for appointment to a prison committee.
