Companies (Auditing and Accounting) Bill 2003: Second Stage.
I welcome the Bill which is long overdue. It needs a very long and considered Committee Stage debate. Although it is directed at the accountancy profession, in reality, the cost being imposed by it will be felt by every business in Ireland. We should bear this in mind in looking at the Bill and only be prepared to impose those additional regulations that are necessary and proportionate.
