I move amendment No.11:
In page 112, after line 33, to insert the following:“Amendment of section 12 of Criminal Justice Act 2006
107. Section 12 of the Criminal Justice Act 2006 is amended by the substitution of the following subsection for subsection (4):“(4) Sections 8 to 8I of the Act of 1984 shall, with the following and any other necessary modifications, apply to photographs taken of a person pursuant to this section as they apply to photographs taken of a person pursuant to section 6 or 6A of the Act of 1984:(a) references to an offence to which section 4 of the Act of 1984 applies shall be construed as references to an offence in respect of which a person may be arrested by a member of the Garda Síochána under any power conferred on him or her by law;
(b) references to section 6 or 6A of the Act of 1984 shall be construed as references to this section; and
