Defence (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2006: Committee Stage
11:00 am
Willie O'Dea (Limerick East, Fianna Fail)
This amendment relates to the courts-martial rules committee. The Bill provides that an officer of the Attorney General will be nominated to sit on the committee by the director general of the Office of the Attorney General. The amendment seeks to change this so that the officer is nominated by the Attorney General. This amendment improves the legislation. Again, we are indebted to Senator Tuffy and I am happy to accept the amendment.
