Fergal Browne (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 16:

In page 33, subsection (4), line 31, to delete "A majority" and substitute "At least one third".

In order to ensure that the work of the committees is not only seen to be fair, but is actually fair, a visible degree of independence is required. That is why Fine Gael proposes to reverse the proportions in the composition of the committee. The committee shall comprise a majority of non-registrants, with one third being registrants.
