I move amendment No. 24:

In page 27, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following:"(iv) assets necessary for the maintenance or education of any children of the debtor who are aged 18 years or under,".

This amendment seeks to provide, in the calculation of a person's assets, for any materials relating to the education of his or her dependants under the age of 18. We discussed this issue in detail on Committee Stage and I note that the Minister has tabled several related proposals.
