Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Consequential Provisions) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-25
============================================================

Brendan Howlin (LAB), Wexford

On this grouping of amendments, if the Long Title got any longer it would be a Bill in its own right.
As to the amendment to include the United Kingdom in the current provisions of defamation, is that provision being reciprocated? Will European Union citizens have the same rights in the United Kingdom as the Government is conferring on the United Kingdom citizens here?
