Defamation Bill 2006: Committee Stage (Resumed)
3:00 pm
Frank Fahey (Galway West, Fianna Fail)
The text of section 26, which provides for the new remedy of a declaratory order, provides throughout for mention of applicant and respondent. This is the correct approach, as no defamation action has been lodged and thus we cannot speak of plaintiff and defendant.
