Defamation Bill 2006: Report and Final Stages
7:00 pm
Eugene Regan (Fine Gael)
Preserving the cause of action after death is cumbersome and problematic. It is problematic from a legal point of view and for the surviving family because that is the corollary of the section. This is why I proposed its deletion and suggested that a reformulation where this type of matter could be dealt with by the Press Council might be a more appropriate procedure.
