I move amendment No. 12:

In page 19, to delete lines 3 to 8 and substitute the following: "(4) The Minister may make regulations—

(a) without prejudice to the generality of section 41(2)(b), specifying the seasonally recurrent employments for which a seasonal employment permit may be granted,

and

(b) specifying the period or periods in a period of 12 months during which a foreign national may be employed in the State pursuant to a seasonal employment permit, each such period being not less than 3 and not more than 7 months, and such employments and periods may be specified by reference to categories of seasonally recurrent employments for which a seasonal employment permit may be granted and by reference to one or more economic sectors into which they fall.".
