Criminal Justice (Temporary Release of Prisoners) Bill 2001: Report and Final Stages.
10:30 am
Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)
I move amendment No. 14:
In page 6, line 22, to delete "shall come" and substitute "comes".
This is a simple amendment, which the Minister of State could not accept on Committee Stage. The Law Reform Commission recommends that, when drafting legislation, simple language in the active voice should be used. Legislation should be clear and readable and I ask him to accept the amendment.
