I move amendment No. 8:

In page 14, to delete lines 13 and 14 and substitute the following: “5. (1) The enactments specified in Part 1 of Schedule 1 are repealed to the extent specified in column (3) of that Part of that Schedule and the enactments specified in Part 2 of that Schedule are revoked to the extent specified in column (3) of that Part of that Schedule.”.

Amendment No. 8 seeks to enable the inclusion of Part 2 of Schedule 1, which revokes certain enactments.

Amendment No. 142 is a technical amendment to revoke statutory instruments made under the Higher Education Authority Act 1971.

Amendments Nos. 149, 150 and 154 seek to amend the definition of an institution of higher education within the meaning of the 1971 Act to an inappropriate reference to a designated institution of higher education within the meaning of this Bill in the Social Welfare Consolidation Act 2005, the Charities Act 2009, the Child and Family Agency Act 2013, the Protected Disclosures Act 2014 and the European Communities (Reception Conditions) Regulations 2018.

Amendments Nos. 151, 152 and 153 seek to amend the consequential amendments to the Technological Universities Act 2018 to ensure the cross-referencing of provisions is correct. These are consequential amendments to Schedules of the Bill.
