Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)

The position has not changed. I am glad the Senator has given me an opportunity to put the position on the record of the House. During the Committee Stage discussion on section 3(2), Senator Regan sought clarification on the last part of that provision, which appears to provide for retrospection. I agreed to re-examine the wording of the section. The amendment before the House proposes to delete the latter part of section 3(2).
