Agreed. Correspondence has been received from the Office of the Clerk of Dáil Éireann, Mr. Peter Finnegan, dated 4 October, notifying the joint committee that a Private Members' Bill, the Merchant Shipping (Investigation of Marine Casualties) (Amendment) Bill 2019 has been read a Second Time. This relates to email correspondence from Deputy Mattie McGrath, dated 9 October, requesting a scrutiny waiver of his Private Members' Bill and an email received from the Business Committee, dated 17 October, regarding the waiver request received from Deputy McGrath concerning the Bill.

Does any member have a comment on this matter? Is it agreed to waive the pre-legislative scrutiny on this Bill as it appears to be a short technical amendment? Agreed.
