Private surveillance of citizens

Summary

Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill seeks urgent action against private surveillance of citizens by banks, Departments or insurers, describing it as unacceptable in a democracy.

Paddy Burke An Cathaoirleach Fine Gael

Is the Senator looking for a debate on the issue?

Comment on this

We need to clamp down on the issue immediately. Willy-nilly people inside and outside the State are carrying out private surveillance on citizens for reasons best known to banks, perhaps Departments and insurance companies. It is disgraceful behaviour in any democracy.
