John Deasy
Ceist:1091 Mr. Deasy asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if Part 12, Section 245 of the Children Act 2001, has not merely re-enacted in updated format the 1908 Act as stated in the accompanying explanatory memorandum but has provided for a cataclysmic change in family law; and, if so, the reason a matter of this magnitude was not flagged by him when he introduced the Bill in order that it could be properly debated by Dáil Éireann before being passed into law.
