John Curran (Dublin Mid West, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 49:

In page 31, to delete lines 28 to 36.

These drafting amendments transfer certain appeal provisions that were previously spread throughout the Bill into a single section for ease of reference. They also give the right of appeal to the Minister against decisions of the authority to register a person. The Minister must normally lodge the appeal within 21 days. This was provided for on the basis of legal advice.
