National Development Finance Agency Bill, 2002: Committee and Remaining Stages.
With regard to the amendment, it is our intention that these guidelines would be widely available. They will issue to Departments and State agencies and authorities, and will be on the public private partnership and Department of Finance websites, fully available to everybody for scrutiny and public information. For that reason, we have no difficulty in submitting the requisite number of copies of the final version of the guidelines to the Oireachtas Library for Members of Dáil and Seanad Éireann to peruse and raise in whatever manner they see fit. However, under section 3(3), the responsibility for issuing guidelines and instructions to the agency rests with the Minister.
