Amendment No. 4 is to clarify that each councillor on Limerick City and County Council will get individual input into the review of the Act, rather than a compromise opinion from the council as a whole. That is important. On amendment No. 5, it is important that experts in local government have input into the process. It is a reasonable amendment to suggest that individuals would be employed who have knowledge or expertise in the administration of local government in Ireland and internationally. It would improve the Bill.
