Twenty-seventh Amendment of the Constitution Bill 2004: Report and Final Stages.

 

1:00 pm

Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

Tairgim leasú a 6:

I leathanach 5, idir línte 12 agus 13, an méid seo a leanas a chur isteach:

1.—Leasaítear leis seo mar a leanas Airteagal 2 den Bhunreacht:

(a) cuirfear an téacs atá leagtha amach i gCuid 1 de Sceideal 1 a ghabhann leis an Acht seo isteach roimh na focail 'Tá gach duine' sa téacs Gaeilge,

(b) cuirfear an téacs atá leagtha amach i gCuid 2 de Sceideal 1 a ghabhann leis an Acht seo isteach roimh na focail 'It is the entitlement' sa téacs Sacs-Bhéarla.".

I move amendment No. 6:

In page 4, between lines 12 and 13, to insert the following:

1.—Article 2 of the Constitution is hereby amended as follows:

(a) the text which is set out in Part 1 of Schedule 1 to this Act shall be inserted before the words 'Tá gach duine' in the Irish text,

(b) the text which is set out in Part 2 of Schedule 1 to this Act shall be inserted before the words 'It is the entitlement' in the English text.".

I have arrived in the House to be given another letter informing me that my amendments are out of order. There must be a better way of conducting our business. Could Senators be given details in advance of the way in which amendments will be dealt with?
