Criminal Procedure Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2021-05-18
============================================================

James Browne (FF), Wexford

The wording mirrors almost identically that in section 23 of the Criminal Procedure Act 2010. This has worked effectively, so far, but we will certainly keep it under review. If there were any change in this Bill, it could impact those cases also. If it were to be changed, it would need to be very carefully considered. I take the Senator's point.
