Tony Killeen (Clare, Fianna Fail)

Seanad amendments Nos. 3 to 5, inclusive, are technical in nature. Under some sections of the Bill — such as section 66(7), concerning an appeal against an improvement notice, or section 67(7) concerning an appeal against a prohibition notice — it will be necessary to prescribe the procedures and forms of order for cases in the District Court. These are matters that will be prescribed by the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform. This is the reason for the deletion of the term "by regulations made" in Seanad amendment No. 3.

Conversely, Seanad amendment No. 4 inserts the term "by regulations made" in page 13, line 3. Seanad amendment No. 5 inserts the phrase "by rules made" after "72(3)" in page 13, line 5, for the same reason.
