I move amendment No. 10:

In page 8, between lines 7 and 8, to insert the following:“10.The Act of 1997 is amended by the insertion of the following new section after section 11:
11A. The Minister shall, within 12 months of the enactment of this Act, lay before the Oireachtas a review of bail supports available in the State, to include but not limited to bail information schemes, bail support/supervision schemes, remand fostering, age appropriate bail supports and bail hostels, and the Minister shall make costed recommendations to Government regarding improvements in the provision of such supports in the State with a view to reducing both custodial remand orders and breaches of bail conditions.”.”.
