Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 5:

In page 6, subsection (2)(a), line 41, before "both" to insert "both Houses of the Oireachtas or".

Deputy Quinn and I have tabled a number of amendments which are intended to give certainty to the role of the Houses of the Oireachtas in this area and to give them a say in changes that might be required. When orders are made to give effect to these changes, they should be placed before both Houses.
