This has been taken totally out of context, the bill going before the Dail consists of much more than just the criminalising of the buying of sex, it has to do with other sexual offences. The tagging of sex offenders woluld only be in very serious cases such as serial rapists etc. This has been brought about by the fear generated by the release of several high profile offenders such as
Larry Murphy and a traveller in Cork whom Gardai were visiting 2 and 3 times a day to keep track of his movements.
