I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to amend the Statistics Act 1993, in relation to the first census of population of Ireland taken since the establishment of the State; to afford that census a special heritage status and to have such released to the public for genealogical, historical and other research.

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