Jim O'Keeffe (Cork South West, Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 32:

In page 10, line 9, after "bail" to insert "and shall otherwise be of good behaviour".

I am advised that section 6 of the Bail Act 1997 requires a person, as a condition of bail, not to commit an offence and to be otherwise of good behaviour. Section 9, as framed, seems to remove the latter requirement and I wonder why.
