James Bannon (Fine Gael)

The Minister stated that acceptance of our amendments would delay the passage of the Bill. A total of 18 Government amendments have been tabled, which means the Bill will have to be returned to the Dáil. I am concerned that the proposed registration body has made it known that architects who are seeking to be registered will be subject to academically-focused methods of assessment known as RPL. Will the Minister clarify the position in this regard?
