I move amendment No. 10:


In page 11, line 1, after "Minister" to insert "in consultation with the appropriate Oireachtas committee".
This amendment was tabled before recent controversies developed. It may be covered by what the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin, recently set out. My experience on the transport committee where we chose a chairman for Dublin Bus in all-party harmony contrasted with certain other events which have not been referred to by me to date. If it is of assistance to the Minister, I note that the amendment is offered for that reason. It may be covered by the proposals of the Minister, Deputy Howlin, during the week. The amendment was intended to compliment the Oireachtas on where the new system already works as in the case I mentioned.
