I move amendment No. 1:

In page 12, between lines 10 and 11, to insert the following:“(2) The Agency shall be a body corporate with perpetual succession and power to sue and be sued in its corporate name.”.

I welcome the opportunity to again discuss the Child and Family Agency Bill 2013 following Committee Stage. This amendment which seeks to insert a new subsection (2) into section 7 is a technical amendment to clarify that the agency "shall be a body corporate with perpetual succession and power to sue and be sued in its corporate name".
