Garda Síochána Bill 2004: Committee Stage.
3:00 pm
Joanna Tuffy (Labour)
I move amendment No. 7:
In page 11, lines 34 to 41 to delete subsection (6).
Subsection (6) undoes much of section 7 and renders it meaningless. It is an opt-out clause in terms of rights the section might create. Section 7 confers rights, such as how gardaí should act in their dealings with the public. Why then provide an opt-out clause?
