Summary
Deputy Pa Daly warned that the Davitt decision could create chaos in the District Court and asked about emergency legislation or a stay. The issue was noted for later response.
We have three remaining Deputies and we are out of time. We have 30 seconds per question.
Comment on this
The Taoiseach is probably aware of what has been described variously as panic and chaos in the District Court yesterday as a result of the Davitt decision. If the current situation continues, there will be fewer gardaí on the streets and more delays in prosecutions.
What steps will the Government be taking in order to address the situation? Will there be emergency legislation? Will there be a stay or an appeal?
