I too support Deputy Clare Daly's amendments. The proposed wording changes such as "authorise a lead in time for" as opposed to "defer" the coming into effect of the operating restrictions, is far stronger language. Given that the Minister, Deputy Ross, has already indicated he will bring forward amendments in the Seanad, I ask that he agrees to these amendments or that he addresses the important issues in his amendments.
