Petroleum (Exploration and Extraction) Safety Bill 2010: Committee Stage
11:00 am
Michael McCarthy (Labour)
I move amendment No. 6:
In page 7, line 46, to delete "sub sea" and substitute "sub-sea".
The Minister has commented on this amendment. It is a drafting amendment. There is no such word as "sub". It is a prefix and therefore should be followed by a hyphen. I discovered this when reading through the Bill between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. the other night. If this amendment were to be accepted, further amendments would be required to other references in the Bill.
