  • THE SUPREME COURT [Appeal No: 069/2011]
    THE SUPREME COURT [Appeal No: 069/2011] Denham C.J. Murray J. Hardiman J. Fennelly J. O'Donnell J. McKechnie J. Clarke J. Between/ Ivor Callely Applicant/Respondent and Pat Moylan, Dan Boyle, Frances Fitzgerald, Camillus Glynn, Denis O'Donovan, Joe O'Toole, and Alex White (Members of the Select Committee on Members' Interests of Seanad Éireann), Committee on Members' Interests of Seanad Éireann and Seanad Éireann Respondents/Appellants Joint Judgment of Mr Justice O'Donnell and Mr Justice Clarke delivered the 9th of April, 2014. I Introduction 1. At one level this appeal concerns questions about the payment of expenses to a member of the Oireachtas and the procedures followed by an Oireachtas Committee in considering allegations arising out of such payments. At another level this appeal raises very important questions about the separation of powers and, in particular, the entitlement of the courts to review disciplinary decisions made by the Houses of the Oireachtas in relation to their own members. 2. The background to these proceedings starts with a public controversy which emerged in the middle of 2010. Suggestions were made of impropriety in the way in which the respondent (hereinafter “Senator Callely”) made claims for expenses. In late May and early June, formal complaints in writing were made by members of the public which were ultimately referred to the Committee on Members Interests of Seanad Éireann (although it is not clear that this is a juristic body). The first to seventh named appellants (hereinafter “the Committee”) are the members of the Committee who conducted hearings during June and July of 2010 and ultimately determined that Senator Callely had misrepresented his normal place of residence for the purposes of claiming such expenses.

  • Mental Health (Involuntary...: 23 Mar 2011: Seanad Debates (Kildarestreet.Com)
    29/03/2011 Mental Health (Involuntary...: 23 Mar 2… Seanad debates Wednesday, 23 March 2011 Mental Health (Involuntary Procedures) (Amendment) Bill 2008: Committee Stage (Resumed) SECTION 1 Question again proposed: “That section 1 be deleted.” 5:00 pm Pat Moylan (Fianna Fail) I welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children, Deputy Kathleen Lynch, and congratulate her on her appointment and wish her well for the future. Senators: Hear, hear. Dan Boyle (Green Party) I move the amendment, as the sponsor of the Bill. Pat Moylan (Fianna Fail) The Senator is opposing the section. Dan Boyle (Green Party) I will explain my opposition to section 1. The Bill was originally envisaged as dealing with two involuntary procedures in the area of mental health , one of which is known as psycho-surgery or, more popularly, lobotomy. This practice has not been carried out in Ireland for several decades and to give more focus to the Bill its sponsors have decided to concentrate on the aspects dealing with electroconvulsive therapy. For this reason, we argue that section 1 is no longer required and our debate should be concentrated on the remainder of the Bill. Joe O'Toole (Independent) I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch. I am delighted for her and wish her well in her new position. I know she will work to the best of her ability.
