Michael Ahern (Cork East, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 4:

In page 3, between lines 27 and 28, to insert the following:

""Act of 1997" means the Irish Takeover Panel Act 1997;".

These are simply technical drafting changes. In section 2, it is proposed to define the Irish Takeover Panel Act 1997 as the Act of 1997, in the same way as the 1990 and 2005 Acts are defined. This then enables a more convenient usage in the other sections where the Act is referred to, namely, sections 17 to 22 inclusive. I commend the amendments to the House.
