Seanad: Multi-Unit Developments Bill 2009: Report and Final Stages (1 Jun 2010)

Eugene Regan: I move amendment No. 7: In page, 6, line 29, before "person" to insert "developer or any other". This is an amendment which I believe has been discussed previously. It simply suggests that instead of "A person to whom this section applies", the Bill should specifically refer to the developer. I am still at a loss as to what other person this section may apply to. The Minister, on Committee...

Eugene Regan: I second the amendment, which is similar to amendment No. 21 that I tabled but which has been ruled out of order because of its references to value added tax and the manner in which it should be calculated. As Senator Bacik has indicated, there was a debate on this issue on Committee Stage. The purpose is to ensure complexes are properly completed and the nub of the issue is how to...

Eugene Regan: I move amendment No. 22: In page 8, line 2, after "completed" to insert "as certified by a professional person". I note the Minister has referred to the difficulty of certifying completion and issues of professional indemnity insurance, but I would have thought that in this section we would have some mechanism by which we can determine the point at which a development is completed. If...

Seanad: Multi-Unit Developments Bill 2009: Report and Final Stages (1 Jun 2010)

Eugene Regan: I thank the Minister for sitting through the entire debate on this complex legislation right to the end. It is a very different Bill now compared with the Bill that was initiated. In most cases, that is due to the further work that was done by the Government. The Seanad has done good work on this legislation. The uncharacteristically conciliatory and accommodating approach of the Minister...
