I was reading through the Bill and looking for things to ask the Minister. Despite my best efforts, I could not think of any amendments. Section 13 is peculiarly worded. I do not remember sections of other Bills concerning ministerial orders providing that "The Minister shall arrange for every order made under this Act to be laid before each House of the Oireachtas as soon as practicable after it is made." I thought the usual wording was "every order made shall be laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas". Is there somebody new in the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel? Is there a reason for the slightly different wording?
