Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

I do not see why specific reference cannot be made because the Bill contains a long list of items to be included in the strategic plan. In reference to amendment No. 32, I do not understand why a provision for facilities and educational programmes that will enhance the social and community and development needs of people living in the area cannot be inserted into the legislation. It is not incongruous to insert that provision because there is already a list of items to be included in the strategic plan in the Bill. Therefore, I am pressing the amendment.
