James Bannon (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 83:

In page 49, lines 7 and 8, to delete "Unless otherwise provided for in this Act or in any other enactment, no" and substitute "No".

Legislation is supposed to bring clarity to certain matters. Section 46, as drafted, does not do so. It states on the one hand that the section means one thing and, on the other, states that it means something else. It goes without saying that other legislation might state something different on this issue. There is no need to muddy the waters with such a statement. I ask the Minister of State to accept the amendment.
