Section 61(1)(a) provides for the searching of indexes to the registers under such conditions as may be determined by an tArd-Chláraitheoir. The provision of this section will not pretend to prohibit the searching of the indices to the registers. The purpose of the provision is to allow for the effective organisation, management and future development of the service. On that basis I am not in a position to accept the amendment.
