Garda Síochána Bill 2004: Committee Stage (Resumed).
7:00 pm
Joanna Tuffy (Labour)
I am concerned that there will be people who will not make a complaint or consent to another person making the complaint on their behalf. However, there may be some other person who wishes to raise the subject of the complaint with the ombudsman commission. How, for example, will a public representative present an issue to the commission if he or she does not have the necessary consent? The Minister of State has mentioned other provisions but they do not address the issue I have raised in amendment No. 107.
