John Browne (Wexford, Fianna Fail)

I move amendment No. 2:

In page 13, between lines 32 and 33, to insert the following:

"(9) Any Fund established under subsection (1) shall be so established for an initial period of 3 years only.

(10) After the expiration of 3 years from the establishment of any Fund under subsection (1), the Minister shall make a determination as to whether the Fund should continue in existence."

This relates to the fund accruing on foot of the forfeiture of compensation due to one as a result of one's donating it to the HSE. Fine Gael is concerned that there is no time limit on the spending of this money. In reality, it is most unlikely that it would not be spent but we are specifying that it be spent within a three-year period. It should not be syphoned off for different projects over time. If part of a fund remains three or more years after its establishment, the Minister should make a determination on whether the fund should remain in existence. I propose a time limit on spending the money in the fund.
