I move amendment No. 7:

In page 11, lines 34 to 41 to delete subsection (6).

Subsection (6) undoes much of section 7 and renders it meaningless. It is an opt-out clause in terms of rights the section might create. Section 7 confers rights, such as how gardaí should act in their dealings with the public. Why then provide an opt-out clause?
