Criminal Justice (Amendment) Bill 2022: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-04-27
============================================================

Pauline O'Reilly (GP), Labour Panel

This is why we are introducing the legislation. It is important to put that on the record. We are all honoured by Senator Doherty's dedication in introducing the Bill. Hopefully, everyone across the House will support it. It is an honour to have a Leader and Deputy Leader of the Seanad who are women. These are changing times. The Seanad can be the face of and give voice to the change that we require in our society to move forward and truly protect women. The three of us are also members of the Joint Committee on Gender Equality. We will work tirelessly on all of the issues related to violence against women.
