Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation
Dail Éireann — 2023-11-09
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I raise again the issue I have raised on numerous occasions in the past, namely, the ongoing difficulties experienced in the family law issues that are ongoing and that have been decided on, the discrimination against mothers and fathers of children, to the extent that parents are barred from seeing their children indefinitely. This has been raised in various other parliaments across Europe. It has been raised on discrimination grounds by freedom-thinking people across Europe and I raise it again in the hope that there can be an emergency intervention to cease the current practices until legislation comes into force.
