        Those fraud/embezzlement executions aren't looking so bad now, huh? (This warrant-less data sharing increases contact with the police, which increases the chances of a fatal encounter, and the incidence of them overall. So, if it's life-and-death on one end...)

  Not in Irish law anyway -- a verbal contract can absolutely hold up in court. Anything including a recording or witness can corroborate this -- not a jot of ink or paper required for enforcement. Still a good idea as writing is just simply a useful flexible and convenient storage mechanism but there are a lot of nuances beyond your 'if it's not written down it doesn't count' sentiment.
