Criminal Law, Civil Law and Defence (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2026: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2026-06-18
============================================================

Jim O'Callaghan (FF), Dublin Bay South

I thank Senators for their contributions. I am conscious that when I introduce a miscellaneous provisions Bill, there will be aspects Members will be supportive of and other aspects they will not be supportive of. That is the nature of a miscellaneous provisions Bill. We will have opportunities through votes on Committee Stage or Report Stage for people to set out their views on individual sections and provisions. Senators are not being deprived of the opportunity to make the political points they wish to make on each section. How long do I have?
