Yes. It states:

Amendment No. 9 seeks to require that the president and at least one officer, having responsibility for academic, financial or administrative matters, are appointed to the governing body. The amendment would have the effect of increasing the minimum number of members on a governing body of a technological university. Members of the body may be paid such allowances in respect of remuneration and expenses that the Minister may determine. Therefore, any increase in membership could impose a charge on the Revenue and the amendment must be ruled out of order in accordance with Standing Order 41.
