Defence (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2006: Committee Stage
11:00 am
Willie O'Dea (Limerick East, Fianna Fail)
The Bill provides that the Minister may make rules of procedure for the functions of the chief military judge "with respect to courts-martial". The amendment proposes to delete this so that rules of procedure may prescribe all the functions of the chief military judge, if there is one. The rules will not necessarily be limited to functions which specifically relate to courts-martial.
