On amendment No. 1 to section 5, the provision of page 5, line 26, was amended by text inserted on Committee Stage by Deputy Ó Cuív, replacing "use by boats with users" because people who do not have boats could also be users of the canals and take water from them. The wording was amended on the advice of the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. The amendment reinstates "use by boats", which fits with the wording in brackets and provides an amended wording, which I believe reflects the intention of the Deputy's amendment on Committee Stage.
