Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Bill 2015: Committee Stage
10:00 am

I do not support the amendment. Originally, we came to the issue by way of a motion that was put down in the Seanad by the Independent group. Two motions were put down, which led to the hearings by the justice committee. I did my own research, met many people across the spectrum on the issue and examined considerable evidence, and I fully support the Government's approach on the issue. The only question I have left is what category Senators White and Norris put me in, but I do not care because I support the amendment.
