Joe O'Toole (Independent)

I move amendment No. 3:

In page 14, lines 43 to 49, to delete paragraph (b) and substitute the following new paragraph:

"(b) an officer or servant of a harbour authority, the Health Service Executive or a vocational educational committee is deemed to be an employee employed by the harbour authority, the Health Service Executive or vocational education committee, as the case may be, and".

This is a straightforward technical amendment to ensure that the cover is extended as intended by the Act and in its spirit. It accords completely with what I believe and what the Minister of State said. It is the kind of change that strengthens what is already contained in the Bill and it is completely in line with the Minister of State's comments.
