Defamation Bill 2006: Committee Stage
4:00 pm
David Norris (Independent)
I thank the Minister. He points to an interesting case in which a company may make a profit after being the subject of adverse comments, which can happen, as it does in political life. Serious allegations were made against the Taoiseach, following which his popularity boomed. Negative comments sometimes have an unpredictable effect and I am grateful to the Minister for agreeing to take another look at this section.
