Eugene Regan (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 8:

In page 16, after line 50, to insert the following:

"(4) The orders made under subsection (3) shall fall within the terms of a scheme to be proposed by the Minister within 21 days which sets out the nature an extent of any restrictions under this section. In respect of a scheme made under this subsection the Minister shall:

(a) cause a draft of the proposed scheme to be laid before each House of the Oireachtas, and

(b) not make the scheme unless and until a resolution approving of the draft has been passed by each such House.".

I believe this amendment is moot. It is in large measure covered by subsection (10). The Minister might clarify that is the case.
