Transfer of Execution of Sentences Bill 2003: Report and Final Stages.

Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

The concept of a relevant authority is central to the Bill and should be clarified at the outset. I have taken these words out of section 5 as they are more appropriate to the definitions section. The words I propose to delete in amendment No. 5 are clearly more appropriate to the definitions section, which is why I propose they are not removed but relocated in section 2 so the reader can understand the concept of the relevant authority before getting into the detail of the Bill.
