Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

I move amendment No. 7:

In page 12, line 34, after "possible" to insert "and in any event within two months".

Two of these amendments are in my name, Nos. 7 and 26. The purpose of No. 7 is to have a deadline for the carrying out of care needs assessments. In other words there should not be an expansion of the time allowed for care needs assessment, as it is important that these be done as quickly as possible while giving a reasonable amount of time to them. I have suggested a timeframe of two months. Amendment No. 26 gives a timeframe for the preparation of reports.
