Nurses and Midwives Bill (2011): Report and Final Stages
1:00 pm
Róisín Shortall (Dublin North West, Labour)
The purpose of this amendment is to ensure that members of local authorities are not precluded from being members of the board. I think this reflects the sentiment that was already expressed in the House. I thank Senator Leyden for bringing this matter to my attention. I thank the House for its co-operation in facilitating a Government amendment on Report Stage at such a late stage. I believe the amendment, as drafted, reflects the intent of the House. I trust that the House will support it.
