Amendment No. 28 tabled by Deputy Flaherty seeks to amend the definition of "statutory undertaker". Amendment No. 28 is unnecessary as it seeks to add "services" after the word "water", however water is the first word in a list which ends in "services". The Bill states "carry out works for the provision of water, gas, electricity or telecommunications services". I am of the view that the amendment is unnecessary in that sense.
