The second main focus of the Bill is to modernise the integrated licensing regime in light of a decade's experience. Amendments are proposed which facilitate better implementation and enforcement. Section 10 updates the level of penalties available to the courts and the maximum fine on summary conviction is increased to €3,000 from just under €1,300. The new section 83(5) introduces a requirement that an applicant for an IPPC licence be a "fit and proper person". This involves being free of convictions in relation to non-compliance with IPPC and waste codes and having the necessary skills and financial resources to carry on the activity in relation to which a licence is sought. I also draw the attention of the House to the new sections 94 and 95 which introduce detailed controls in relation to the transfer and surrender of licences.
