Seanad debates

Order of Business.
I would like to have a debate at some stage, presumably after Easter, on the question of law enforcement in this country. We heard from Senator O'Meara last night about the lack of enforcement of environmental law in County Tipperary. It is now beginning to be enforced as a result of my colleague's activities. We know that a State body, Aer Rianta, has been pumping raw sewage into the Shannon Estuary for the past few years. Until a huge fuss was made, no one was prepared to enforce the law.
