We may now proceed to consider amendment No. 1. Can I ask the Sinn Féin Deputies how stands the amendment?

We are pressing it. I move amendment No. 1:

To delete all words after “to halt this proposed regionalisation” and substitute the following:

“— recognise that given the voluntary nature of the service in its current form a cost benefit analysis is unnecessary; and

— ensure that the existing model, where independent management of the service is drawn from both the local community and voluntary sector, is maintained.”

Amendment put:

The Dáil divided: Tá, 44; Níl, 96; Staon, 0.
