Criminal Justice (Temporary Release of Prisoners) Bill 2001: Second Stage.
Senator Walsh was under the misapprehension that there are no categories which could not be considered for temporary release. Under paragraph 1(3)(b) the Minister may not give a direction granting temporary release where the release of that person from prison is prohibited by or under any enactment. The Oireachtas has provided for that prohibition in certain enactments.
