Message from Joan Burton TD.

 

Just to let you know, that the Labour Party Private Members Bill in respect of redress has now been entered by the Labour Party as a Private Members Bill and has been accepted as such by Government. Obviously Government has not allocated any time to it.

However, we have decided to allocate next weeks, Tuesday and Wednesday 7 to 8.30 each evening, of our last Private Members Time, our last Private Members Time before the summer recess, to debating our redress Bill.

In that context I would be grateful if you would let people you know, with an interest in the issue, know and also if they wish to come and hear some or all of the debate they will be very welcome.

They can either arrange to come and view the debate through my office or any other Labour Party TD or through Cathy Flanagan who will arrange for them to be admitted to the public gallery.

I hope that this will raise the profile of the various issues which the Bill seeks to redress.

I attach a summary of the Bill for your information.

Best regards

Joan Burton TD.

Deputy Leader of the Labour Party.

I started this Blog to get out of my system the absolute rage that I have for the corrupt politicians and their Banker Buddies. I’m an ordinary guy, married with kids, and have firm opinions of what is right and what is wrong. I’m not afraid to say it even when it makes me unpopular. I reproduce news all manner of articles, but will always confirm the source of the articles; this is a compliment to the source of such news pieces. But if you do not agree with this and you are the original author, I will take down any article when requested to do so. I do not assume that the author of the news articles share with my views, I include news articles to give readers another slant to my views or to illustrate what the mainstream news media say on the relevant topic. The opinions expressed are my own but I do not accept liability for them, If I have offended you or made a factual error please put on record the truth by leaving a comment. In addition, my thoughts and opinions change from time to time...I consider this a necessary consequence of having an open mind. This weblog is intended to provide a semi-permanent point in time snapshot and manifestation of the various memes running around my brain, and as such any thoughts and opinions expressed within out-of-date posts may not the same, nor even similar, to those I may hold today. For the record I am currently an Independent political activist and am not affiliated to any political party
