Bill will strengthen monitoring of dangerous offenders on release from prison

Minister for Justice Helen McEntee last week said there were no proposals at present to make participation in the programme mandatory for prisoners jailed for related offences.

“The purpose of the Bill is to enhance current systems for assessment and management of convicted sex offenders and to put those systems on a statutory footing,” a spokesman said. Currently sex offenders must only inform a prospective employer about their convictions if their work may involve them having unsupervised access to children or mentally impaired people. Members of the public have no right to information about a sex offender living in their area.
