Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I do not want to give Deputy Shortall incorrect information but I am informed that those amendments are reproductions in full as a counter to the effect of her amendments which were tabled previously. That is the procedure followed by the Bills Office. My understanding is that I have not produced anything new of a substantive nature in the past 24 hours. However, the Bills Office follows the procedure whereby it reproduces the entire amendments on the basis of the amendments the Deputy produced last night. That is fine and I will deal with them.
