Wednesday 19 November - Asylum Policy Pressure & The Ivan Yates Grilling
Description
Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan says Ireland must be “nimble” in responding to major shifts in British asylum policy after tough new reforms were announced by UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood. To debate the implications, Fianna Fáil Senator Lorraine Clifford-Lee, Independent Ireland TD Ken O’Flynn, and immigration lawyer Cathal Malone join the programme.
Later, Ivan Yates appears alone before the Oireachtas Media Committee following controversy over his media training for Fianna Fáil presidential candidate Jim Gavin. With Coimisiún na Meán and Newstalk now reviewing the matter, what does this mean for media transparency and future podcast regulation?
Featuring reaction from Labour TD Alan Kelly, and analysis from John Masterson of Purcell Masterson PR.
Policy tensions, media scrutiny, and questions of transparency — all on The Tonight Show.
