Michael McGrath (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 25:

In page 12, lines 1 to 7, to delete subsection (6) and substitute the following:

"(6) The Minister for Finance may make recommendations to the Minister as respects—

(a) the proportion of the annual approved expenditure amount or revised annual approved expenditure amount, as the case may be, that, having regard to fiscal and economic conditions, he or she considers should be applied to—

(i) meet current expenditure requirements, and

(ii) meet capital expenditure requirements,

and,

(b) the level of appropriations-in-aid which should be raised.".
