I move amendment No. 91:

In page 11, after line 29, to insert the following:“Amendment of Schedule 2 to Act of 2012

29.Schedule 2 to the Act of 2012 is amended by the insertion of the following paragraph after paragraph 11:
“12. The Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission.”.”.

This relates to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission, GSOC. GSOC investigates allegations of offences committed by gardaí. This amendment provides that if GSOC has information arising from its investigations suggesting that a person would pose a threat to children or vulnerable persons it must inform the vetting bureau.
