James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)

Amendment No. 7 sets to establish an automatic review process for the Bill within five years from enactment. While the Bill does not make provision for a formal review within a specific timeframe, I assure the Deputies that the provisions contained therein will be subject to ongoing monitoring. Should any difficulty come to light, steps will be taken to address it in the most appropriate way. Therefore, I urge the Deputy to withdraw his amendment.
