Michael Creed (Cork North West, Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 2:

In page 10, line 10, after "Minister" to insert the following:

"and the appropriate Department in the Northern Ireland Assembly".

This amendment proposes to oblige the Minister, when considering granting a foreshore licence in the vicinity of either Carlingford or Lough Foyle, to consult with the relevant Department in the Northern Ireland Assembly. This makes sense and I ask the Minister of State to accept the amendment.
