‹ Order of Business Garda malicious injuries compensation
Summary
Ray Butler sought the publication date for revised compensation legislation for Gardaí injured on duty; the Taoiseach expected the Bill early in 2013.
When is publication expected of the Garda Síochána (malicious injuries compensation) Bill to provide a revised scheme for compensating gardaí injured in the course of duty? I raise the issue because two young members of the Garda in my constituency were injured. The system is indiscriminate when it comes to claims by gardaí for injuries incurred while on duty with the force.
