Civil Law and Criminal Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2020-07-28
============================================================

Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East

I wish to reassure the Senator that this is not a pluralist measure but a reform that allows the rules of court to be made, allowing a statement of truth to be made and communicated electronically. It is not in place of swearing an affidavit or oath.
