European Parliament Directive on Victims of Crime: Motion (Resumed)
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-25
============================================================

Danny Healy-Rae (IND), Kerry

Yes. They come here for asylum and if they commit a serious crime, like with a knife or whatever, we should do one thing with them - put them on a boat and send them back to wherever they came from. That is all I am asking; not to be wasting the taxpayer's money here, there and everywhere and giving them free legal aid because that is not right.
