Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael)

I accept the Minister's bona fides. In theory it may sound like a good idea, but it is not fully thought out. It would not operate as outlined in section 14.

The divisional panels of reservists which we propose are worth taking on board. I could not support section 14 as it is constituted. The Minister has said the representative associations are also opposed to the measure. I am opposed to the section and will press my amendment.
