Jim Walsh (Fianna Fail)

The Bill has received good scrutiny here and in the Dáil. The Minister must be complimented on bringing forward this legislation. This area has given rise to public concern and the need for regulation was evident. I compliment the Minister on dealing with the legislation in a comprehensive and fair manner. The Bill will reassure the public as to the manner in which security services are provided and that those involved in the industry are people of character who can be relied upon to do their jobs with integrity.
