I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide for the drawing up by the Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland and the approval by the Minister for Finance of codes of practice in relation to good corporate governance for companies admitted to trading on the official list of the Irish Stock Exchange; to provide for the enforcement of those codes; and to provide for connected matters.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.
