Digital Hub Development Agency Bill, 2002: Report and Final Stages.

 

The Senator may parse and analyse paragraph (i) of amendment No. 9, but it is necessary to give the agency the authority and mandate to enter into commercial agreements. The Senator says favours might be done, but I cannot envisage that. A body like this must be given the opportunity to enter into agreements with private individuals who provide funding. This must be done with the aim of developing the digital hub or it would not be caught by the legislation. I do not have as jaundiced an eye as the Senator.
