This amendment inserts the definition of "Director" in section 3 of the Bankruptcy Act 1988 into the Bill.

The definition is necessary for the interpretation of the Act, given the transfer of responsibility for the office of the official assignee in bankruptcy to the Insolvency Service of Ireland.

Amendment No. 10 corrects an error in the text. Amendment No. 11 makes clear that all documents relating to the office of the official assignee in bankruptcy are to be transferred to the Insolvency Service of Ireland from the Courts Service.
