The amendment proposes a broadening of the grounds of appeal in respect of periodic payment orders by deleting the proviso that the appeal against a High Court decision to the Court of Appeal must be on a point of law. As the issue was not discussed on Committee Stage, the amendment must, therefore, be ruled out of order as it does not arise from committee proceedings. I refer the Deputy to the salient ruling of the Chair, No. 173/2011.
