Josepha Madigan: I have said that what I believe the Deputy is looking for is already provided for at line 17 on page 9. I believe that is what the Deputy is addressing and that is already provided for. I think what he is looking for is superfluous to that.

Josepha Madigan: The boat owner is a master of the boat. He or she is not just a person on the canal. There is a distinction to be made.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: Maybe not at that time. We are getting a bit pedantic perhaps, with due respect to the Deputy.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: It is pedantic. I have known that well for many years. I know the law can turn and change on one word. I understand the Deputy's intentions but we have to look at this in a comprehensive way. I believe the concerns addressed by the Deputy are provided for.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: I have to be able to direct the boat owner when he or she is not on the boat.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: I thank the Deputy but I am not accepting the amendment because it is an operational matter for Waterways Ireland and it is not appropriate for primary legislation. The Bill indicates "If Waterways Ireland proposes to make bye-laws under subsection (1), it shall ... publish a notice of the proposal on its website and in one or more newspapers circulating in the vicinity of the canal or other...

- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)

- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: There is a difference between allowing interested parties to register for a mailing list and requiring that people are informed of by-laws in this way. Waterways Ireland may take what the Deputy is suggesting into account but it is not for primary legislation. Somebody could be missed and people may also miss emails, as we know. I am sure it is something Waterways Ireland could consider....

Josepha Madigan: Local newspapers are online now as well and there could be difficulty with having people opting in and out through electronic means. There is a 90-day consultation period in this process so there would be ample opportunities for people. It is not a matter for primary legislation.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: The 90-day consultation period facilitates that.

Josepha Madigan: Not at all, and as I mentioned, Waterways Ireland may look at this. It is an operational matter for that body.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: We will have a look at it.
- Select Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs: Heritage Bill 2016: Committee Stage (25 Apr 2018)
Josepha Madigan: That is the time to pay the fixed notice. It is dealt with on page 7 at line 34: "the person may, during the period of 21 days beginning on the date of the notice, make to Waterways Ireland, at the address specified in the notice, a payment of the specified amount, accompanied by the notice, duly completed". In our view, 21 days is sufficient and we do not require 30 days. A period of 21...
