I move amendment No. 26:

In page 16, line 27, to delete “across all disciplines” and substitute “in all disciplines”.

These are two drafting suggestions. The amendments amend section 9(1)(i) which states: "promote, support and fund excellent research in the higher education system across all disciplines in accordance with national research policy and in partnership, as may be appropriate, with Ministers of the Government, Government agencies and such other bodies as An tÚdarás considers appropriate". These amendments are proposed to convey the policy intent of the subsection more accurately.
