Alan Dillon

Question:

123. Deputy Alan Dillon asked the Minister for Justice if her Department has legislative plans to remove the Edward's principle, which allows a party causing a nuisance to refuse compensation to the suffering part due to the land outside their railings, trestles; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40545/20]

Written answers

Minister for Justice

It is not clear from the Deputy's question what piece of legislation he is referring to or where responsibility for this matter may ultimately rest. My officials will contact the Deputy directly to find out more information and to see if my Department can be of further assistance.
