I move amendment No. 7:
These amendments make changes to the list of rules and arrangements relating to the Irish anti-doping rules. The purpose of the changes is to ensure the matters listed in the Bill are consistent with the world anti-doping code.
In page 24, between lines 19 and 20, to insert the following:"(a) application of rules;".
Amendment No. 7 is a technical amendment to correct an omission in the original text. An additional point on the application of the rules is being included in the list to allow for arrangements with regard to those to whom the rules apply. Amendments Nos. 8 and 9 are to insert the words "and methods" after the word "substance" to ensure the rules are consistent with the language in the world anti-doping code.
In amendment No. 10, I am proposing to insert the word "implementation" in the list set out in section 41(2). This is to make clear that Sport Ireland can make and implement decisions as well as report on the decisions it has implemented.
