I move amendment No. 7:


In page 7, between lines 10 and 11, to insert the following:
“6. To amend section 58C of the Act of 1970 by inserting the following new subsection:
“(13) The agreement, referred to in subsection (1) shall not be restrictive in terms of who might enter into it, excepting that they are a registered general practitioner who has a high competency in the English language, and that the agreement, referred to in subsection (1) might be terminated only where the Irish Medical Council fitness to practice committee has found that the general practitioner is no longer fit to practice, or where the general practitioner voluntarily decides to no longer be party to the agreement.”.
