Family Law Cases
Dail Éireann — 2025-10-09
============================================================

Paul Nicholas Gogarty (IND), Dublin Mid-West

I believe it is important to keep the pressure on and to keep working on this issue. In many instances, these so-called experts are not actually qualified, and in many instances they are actually being paid by one parent to produce the report because the other parent cannot afford to have a similar report. It is not a fair situation and the more the media are able to shed light on the situation and the more scrutiny put on it, the less likely it will be that these types of cases will occur in future.
