Paschal Mooney (Fianna Fail)

There is an historical anomaly in this but I will not ask the Minister to comment on it. Section (r) states: "the Treaty concerning the accession of the Kingdom of Norway." Norway opted out following that signature. This is unusual legislation because it includes a country which is not a member of the European Union, although we are discussing accession.

Question put and agreed to.

Section 2 agreed to.

Title agreed to.

Bill reported without amendment and received for final consideration.

Question proposed: "That the Bill do now pass."
