Michael McDowell (Dublin South East, Progressive Democrats)

I move amendment No. 42:

In page 14, line 46, to delete "indictable".

The amendment only occurred to us following Committee Stage. The amendment seeks to remove the term "indictable" from section 12(3)(a). The reference should be to an offence because section 3 deals with summary offences, indictable offences triable summarily and indictable offences.
