Public Health (Tobacco) (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee Stage (Resumed) and Remaining Stages.
3:00 pm
Brian Hayes (Fine Gael)
We tabled this amendment to make it abundantly clear that while proprietors in the vast majority of cases will do their best to ensure compliance, there will be cases where that is not possible. We need reasonableness in this area. If the Minister is publicly telling the House he is satisfied that section 47 of the principal Act provides for such reasonableness, we will accept that. I take it that is what he is saying.
