Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2008: Committee Stage
12:00 pm
Feargal Quinn (Independent)
I was rather upset by the Minister of State's suggestion that our proposals to improve the Bill would not achieve the objectives set out in the Bill. I and my colleagues want to have good legislation and we seek to improve the Bill. The Minister of State suggested the purpose of our amendments is to delay or stop the Bill. That is not our intention and I ask him to rephrase his remarks insinuating that those of us who are trying to improve the Bill are seeking to prevent its objective being achieved.
