I will be putting forward an amendment on Report Stage to amend this section. It will propose to delete lines 27 to 33 on page 30 and insert a provision making an order to prohibit the DAHR facility from performing DAHR procedures for any period up to 12 months and that an operator of a DAHR facility will commit an offence if he or she fails in their obligations to comply with section 26 to the extent of causing the Circuit Court to make an order under section 26(5). It will also provide that a person who commits an offence under this section will be liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding €3,000 and, on conviction of indictment, to a fine not exceeding €100,000.
