Criminal Procedure Bill 2009: Report and Final Stages
4:00 pm
Ivana Bacik (Independent)
I am grateful to the Minister for accepting the principle of amendment No. 4 on Committee Stage and tabling his own amendment. On Committee Stage I raised the issue of the time gap between the injury caused and the death of the victim and that the family would be able to speak about the impact on the relative before his or her death. It may only arise in a small number of cases but it is an important principle.
