The comments by Hogan J. are, as always, so apt and so uplifting! What a debt we owe to so many brave litigants. Congratulations to wonderful colleagues @AileenFKavanagh @hogan_hilary.
Great article by @MaryCarolanIT@IrishTimes today, shining a spotlight on Mrs McGee’s landmark case in 1973 which led to the legalisation of contraception in Ireland, discussed at the @TriCONDublin conference on ‘Contraception and the Constitution’ @TLRHub@TCDLawSchool
Thank you for a thought-provoking meeting and an opportunity to bring together diverse perspectives. A pleasure to be part of the discussion on oversight of prisons.

“Social Rehabilitation and Criminal Justice” (@RoutledgeLaw) is OUT! 🎈 What a beautiful journey. Heartfelt thanks to our stellar authors for their enlightening contributions on the meaning of social rehabilitation, including its critical relevance to the achievement of justice.
It’s taken an unconscionable amount of time, but good news to see the ‘under reservation’ caveat lifted from crime statistics. The role of the @CSOIreland is critical, and undervalued.
We are honoured to host the Society of Legal Scholars Hale Lecture on Tuesday 24 October 2023, in honour of Baroness Hale of Richmond. The Hale Lecture will be delivered by The Hon. Mr. Justice Gerard Hogan, Judge of the Supreme Court of Ireland. https://t.co/xyWDDXZQE6
Reflecting on 10 years since the Joint Ctte report on Penal Reform and almost 10 since the PPRG report. Sad to be talking about increasing prison numbers and overcrowding again. We need to implement those principles. OPCAT also very overdue and General Scheme requires amendment.
Thanks to all who attended our all-party #penalreform group briefing today in Leinster House with the @IPRT - particular thanks to our great expert speakers @MaryRogan @TCDLawSchool & Prof Ian O’Donnell @UCDcrim

Joining with so many others in giving thanks for the truly monumental generosity of Chuck Feeney. @IPRT would not have survived never mind become the authoritative, well-run force for good that it is without his input. An exceptional legacy. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

Great opportunity her for practitioners, academics and PhD students. Looking for the best legal brains out there to help us advance the cause of @IrishLawReform!
