I move amendment No. 24:

In page 15, line 30, after “established” to insert “(other than under the Companies Acts)”.

This amendment is being proposed to the definition of "public body" in section 6(1)(c) to make it clear it includes a body established or appointed by the Government or a Minister other than a body established under the Companies Acts. The purpose of this amendment is to avoid commercial entities created under the Companies Acts being inadvertently included under freedom of information.
