I appeal to members to switch off their mobile phones as they cause interference, even when in silent mode.

The business to be addressed this morning is Committee Stage of the Courts Bill 2016. I welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Justice and Equality, Deputy David Stanton and his officials to the meeting. I also wish to record our appreciation of the Minister of State's work as the former Chairman of this committee.

I now propose to proceed to address, for each of the sections, the amendments before me.
