I move amendment No. 101:

In page 23, lines 21 and 22, to delete from "person;" in line 21 down to and including line 22 and substitute "person.".

This is a proposal in respect of confidential information. The purpose of the amendment is to remove the wording " 'relevant committee' includes a subcommittee of such a committee". As we have approved the removal of committees that is consistent with the other amendments. However, I am conscious that Deputy Ó Laoghaire will note that it refers to the procedures committee as well and he may be opposed to it.

It is not grouped and has not been addressed previously.
