Feargal Quinn (Independent)

The difference between the amendment and what is contained in the section relates to the word "practising". Senator Coonan's amendment refers to a "practising horticulturist", whereas the section refers to "persons having knowledge or experience of horticulture". I am quite happy with the Bill as it stands and I do not believe there is a need for the amendment. I understand the Senator wishing to insert the term "practising" but I would be satisfied with the use of the term "persons having knowledge or experience of horticulture". However, I still believe that the term "fewer" is more apt than that of "less".
