I move amendment No. 113:

In page 59, subsection (1), lines 18 and 19, to delete "complaint under section 90" and insert ''a matter under this Act".

This relates to the power to search a Garda station, which should not be restricted to investigations under section 90 but should be available when any matter under this Bill is being investigated. Why is the Minister so anxious to restrict the powers of the ombudsman commission which he is establishing?
