I move amendment No. 15:
These amendments to sections 11 and 14 are drafting and technical in nature. Both of these sections are contained in Part 2 of the Bill, which deals with the dissolution and amalgamation of authorities in Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford. Amendment No. 17 deletes the reference to Part 17 of the Local Government Act 2001, which is the principal Act, in section 11(17) of the principal Act. The Part 17 in question deals with the establishment of a town council and will no longer be relevant following dissolution of town councils as provided for in Part 3 of the Bill. The deletion of Part 17 itself is provided for in Part 1 of Schedule 1 of the Bill, which deals with miscellaneous and consequential amendments to the principal Act. Amendment No. 16 is cognate on amendment No. 17 and amendment No. 15 is a straightforward drafting change to section 11.
In page 15, line 42, to delete “a boundary” and substitute “the boundary”.
