Joe McHugh (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 36:

In page 17, between lines 44 and 45, to insert the following:

"16.—The Freedom of Information Acts shall apply to all aspects of or relating to the functions and activities of the Minister and the Board under this Act and the Principal Act.".

All the activities of the board and the Minister should be subject to the Freedom of Information Act. I presume there is a stipulation which allows this. If not, there should be.
