Animal Health and Welfare Bill 2012: Committee Stage (Resumed)
5:00 am
Brian Ó Domhnaill (Fianna Fail)
The Bill will cede this power to the Judiciary. It may be worthwhile to address this provision as it may be unfair. People redeem themselves and penalties are imposed for that reason. While I have not tabled an amendment on the issue, it may be worthwhile to examine the provisions in operation in other jurisdictions, with a view to redrafting this provision.
