Fine Gael has today published a ten-point action plan to deal with this issue. We have ideas which we want to debate on the floor of the House and we encourage others to bring their own ideas forward. It would not be right to go into recess without any debate on the specific actions that must be taken to stop this spiralling rise in crime in our society. This House needs to take a firm and definite stand on that matter. I encourage the Leader to accept our amendment in the spirit in which it is put.
