Alan Shatter (Dublin South, Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 34:

In page 25, line 14, after "Executive" to insert "or other accredited body".

These amendments relate to allowing a body other than the HSE to furnish a report as to the suitability of someone to adopt to the adoption authority. We went into the reasons for this in great detail on Committee Stage and I will give the Minister an opportunity to respond as to whether he has had second thoughts on this issue.
