Digital Hub Development Agency Bill, 2002: Committee Stage (Resumed).

With regard to the provision that "the agency shall publish continuously by electronic means", I wish to touch on the point I made on amendment No. 6 about the difference between "compelling" and "enabling". Although the Minister has agreed to consider this matter further before Report Stage, I am concerned that I may not have made the case strongly enough. I am not seeking an amendment which simply states that publication by electronic means will be enabled. It is essential that publication by electronic means actually takes place. I hope the Minister will take full account of that in considering the matter further.
