Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Report and Final Stages.

 

10:30 am

Jim Higgins (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 27:

In page 11, to delete lines 18 to 24, and substitute the following:

"(b) Where an application is made to head for a review under section 14 of a decision to grant a request under section 7, a certificate shall not be issued in respect of the record concerned more than 3 weeks after the date of the receipt of the application by that head.".

There are three remaining amendments in my name. The Opposition has decided to try to dispatch the Bill before the Minister leaves at 4 p.m. The amendment is self-explanatory. I wish to hear the Minister's reply.
