European Arrest Warrant (Amendment) Bill 2022: From the Seanad
Dail Éireann — 2024-03-06
============================================================

James Browne (FF), Wexford

Amendments Nos. 27 to 32, inclusive, amend section 11 of the Bill, which inserts a new section 16A into the 2003 Act. The new section 16A provides that where the prescribed time limits are not met, that failure does not constitute a ground to refuse surrender, does not prejudice the requirement for the court to make a decision as to whether to endorse an arrest warrant for execution and does not preclude the continued detention of the person under the 2003 Act. Following legal advice, the provisions that provide the failure does not prejudice the requirement for the court to make a decision as to whether to endorse an arrest warrant for execution, are not now required.
Amendments Nos. 28 and 31 delete these particular provisions.
Amendments Nos. 27, 29, 30 and 32 are administrative textual amendments arising from that deletion.
