Legal Services Regulation Bill 2011: Report Stage
10:30 am

If I may explain, this group of amendments relates to section references. It is not that there is any substantive amendment in each of these amendments. They made changes to the section references. They only relate to the section references. We are reconciling the section references of the Bill with the various amendments made to the Bill since its inception and since it has come before the Seanad. It will be appreciated how difficult it is to maintain correct numbering as we go through the numerous amendments that a Bill of this complexity will generate by way of realising what we are trying to do here from a whole-Bill point of view. These amendments literally deal with the section numbering that we are putting together. As we have inserted new amendments, the section numbering is changing. I am not sure there would be much point in discussing each of those number changes. That is effectively what we are doing here to take account of the amendments that have been made.
