Brendan Howlin (Wexford, Labour)

I move amendment No. 31:

In page 13, subsection (2), line 30, to delete paragraph (j) and substitute the following:

"(j) Financial Services Ombudsman's Bureau;

(k) Financial Services Ombudsman Council.".

This amendment provides for the inclusion of the Finance Services Ombudsman's Council in the list of bodies under the aegis of the Minister for Finance. Functions in relation to the superannuation or remuneration of its members of staff are performed by the Minister for Finance in consultation with the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.
