Birth Information and Tracing Bill 2022: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage
Dail Éireann — 2022-04-27
============================================================

Kathleen Funchion (SF), Carlow-Kilkenny

That is a really good move and a significant step. Maybe it was Deputy Bacik who made the proposal on Committee Stage. It was a really good suggestion and I am glad to see it in the legislation. For me, it shows that so much progress can be made. This goes back to the point that if we could just make progress on the one outstanding issue, it would make the difference between our supporting the legislation and our not doing so. The amendment is a really important one. It was really well thought out. In fairness to the officials and the Minister, it is really significant that it has been included.
