Health (Amendment) Bill 2020: Second Stage
Dail Éireann — 2020-10-23
============================================================

Michael McNamara (IND), Clare

I will conclude with the point that laws are made by the Oireachtas in accordance with the Constitution. I accept that we can delegate powers to the Minister, but there is a finite amount that we can delegate. An event is an event. A friend visiting another friend or a family member visiting a family member is not an event.
