Civil Service Regulation (Amendment) Bill 2004: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage.
11:00 am
Dan Boyle (Cork South Central, Green Party)
I asked two specific questions neither of which were answered. One related to the degree of consultation that took place with the Houses of the Oireachtas Commission, and what is meant by direct consultation with the Ceann Comhairle and the Cathaoirleach, especially in regard to the position of the Captain of the Guard and the Superintendent. Does consultation mean that a decision is reached and acted upon or does it mean that prior consent is reached and is acted upon? It is not clear in the amendment.
