Garda Síochána (Police Co-Operation) Bill 2003: Second Stage.

 

I intend to propose an amendment to section 5 of the Bill, but it is better that I leave discussion of that until Committee Stage tomorrow. I feel privileged to be associated with the introduction of this Bill and its passing into law. I look forward to being involved in it on Committee Stage and to mapping its course through the Lower House when it reaches it. In years to come, our children's children will take for granted what we are putting into law today. They will not have known anything different. I feel privileged that I will be able to say I knew a time when we had two very distinct police forces on the island but that they are now coming together as one in the best interests of the people of this island.
