Noel O'Flynn (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)

Deputy Burton tabled an amendment to this section, amendment No. 2, which seeks to insert a new section that would apply the Freedom of Information Act 1997 to the Central Bank, the Financial Regulator, the NTMA, the National Development Fiance Agency and the National Pensions Reserve Fund. The provisions of the Bill do not include any reference to freedom of information or any of these agencies except the Central Bank. The amendment is out of order because it is outside the scope of the Bill.
