I move amendment No. 59:

In page 56, line 16, after “council” to insert “or a county council”.

This amendment relates to extending the opportunity to all councils, and not exclusively the six mentioned county and city councils, to call their chairperson or cathaoirleach "méara" or "mayor". In our case, in County Donegal, the council has for some time been in a position to do so. The Minister might be good enough to extend additional funding to solve some of the problems on the ground up there. We would be very grateful for it.
