Proposed amendments to rape law

Summary

Barnes asked whether amendments would await Law Reform Commission recommendations or be introduced before July. Collins said he would address the issue in a separate answer, or circulate it if that question was not reached.

In the light of the recent debate and concern about rape are we to understand we will have to wait recommendations from the Law Reform Commission before amendments will be made, or will the Minister introduce such amendments before the end of July?

Comment on this

There is a question on the Order Paper for today which deals specifically with that subject. If the Deputy will bear with me, I will answer that when we get to it. If it is not reached the reply will be circulated.
