Alice-Mary Higgins (Independent) | Oireachtas source
I move amendment No. 35:
In page 13, to delete lines 4 to 6 and substitute the following:"(2) The members of the Commission shall select a chairperson from among its membership who shall be a lay person. In making their selection the Commission shall endeavour to ensure that any such chairperson selected has both a strong legal understanding and a proven capacity to communicate in a clear and accessible manner.".
I appeal to all Senators to look at this amendment.
