Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour)

I move amendment No. 2:

In page 31, line 44, to delete "subsection (6)" and substitute "subsection (5)".

As a result of the proofing of the Bill on Committee Stage, a number of minor technical issues have come to light that require amendment. I informed the House on Committee Stage that a number of amendments of this nature would be required. In total, eight amendments fall into this category. Amendments Nos. 2 and 3 are purely technical in nature. Section 40 deals with reviews by the authority of the review procedures of the NUI. As currently drafted, section 40(6) incorrectly refers to itself, whereas the reference should be to the previous subsection. It is therefore proposed to make an amendment so that the reference is to section 40(5). This is the purpose of amendment No. 2.

Section 62 provides for the annual charge for use by providers of the international education mark. As currently drafted, section 62(5) refers to "the annual charge prescribed under subsection (2)". However, the charge is actually prescribed under subsection (3) so it is now proposed to amend this reference to reflect the fact. This is the intention of amendment No. 3. These amendments do not involve any change to the substance of the relevant sections and subsections.
