I move amendment No. 27:

In page 7, before section 8, to insert the following new section:

8.–A restatement of the enactments relating to non-nationals, immigration and asylum as amended inter alia by this Act shall be prepared under the Statute Law (Restatement) Act, 2002, as soon as may be after the passing of this Act.".

The law on immigration and asylum goes back to 1935 and has been amended on a number of occasions. My colleagues and I feel it should be tidied up and I await the Minister's comments.
