I move amendment No. 1:

In page 3, line 5, to delete “raised”.

On Committee Stage, Deputy Ó Cuív proposed to amend the Bill to provide for the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht to carry out further reviews of other natural heritage areas. The then Minister undertook to consider the matter further with a view to addressing same on Report Stage. The proposed Report Stage amendments provide for the widening of the scope of the Bill to enable the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, at his or her discretion, to conduct a review or reviews of other existing natural heritage areas as well as to continue and complete the 2014 review of the raised bog natural heritage area network. The proposed amendments are mainly within section 4 of the Bill, which inserts a new section 18A in the Wildlife (Amendment) Act 2000.
