Proceeds of Crime (Amendment) Bill 2016: Committee and Remaining Stages
10:30 am
Martin Conway (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
On behalf of the Fine Gael group, I thank the parties in the House for their co-operation in this regard. We start this term as we finished the last term; overloaded to a large extent with justice legislation. It is very important legislation, and Senator Bacik will appreciate where I am coming from on that comment. The Bill will make a difference to CAB and in dealing with the criminal elements in this city that are destroying people's lives. It will equip CAB further to seize the property and assets that are purchased and acquired as a result of ill-gotten gains. That is a good thing for Ireland and the citizens of this country and this city.
