Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

I am disappointed that my amendment has been ruled out of order. The Bill does not provide any additional resources to the Garda to carry out the heavy burden of work its provision will impose upon the service. The legislation is lacking in this regard.

Question put and agreed to.

Sections 16 and 17 agreed to.

Schedule agreed to.

Title agreed to.

Bill reported without amendment.

Report Stage ordered for Thursday, 22 May 2003.
