I move amendment No. 86:

In page 43, line 12, to delete "delay—" and substitute "delay and, in any event, within 3 months—".

The purpose of this amendment is to make clear that the information is to be removed from the register of debt relief notices within three months of the discharge of the debtor from his or her debt.

I take this opportunity to inform Members that we intend to bring forward corresponding amendments in relation to debt settlement arrangements and personal insolvency arrangements in the Seanad. It is important that people know when they will come off the register. It is also important there is consistency in the Bill. These particular matters will be addressed in the Seanad, following which the Bill will return to this House for a brief session.
