I do not disagree. I acknowledge the Deputy's comment that she will reflect on the matter between now and Report Stage. However, a strict reading of the amendment indicates that the Deputy is seeking to reduce the two requirements to one, namely that a person has appropriate knowledge of the decisions only. That is somewhat narrow. I accept what Deputy O'Callaghan has said about the knowledge of the practice and procedure on the structure and operation of the court as well as the decisions. I am sympathetic to the point being made.
