Judicial Appointments Commission Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed)
2:30 pm

I only have two questions for the Minister because I will be uncharacteristically brief. Section 23.2 states: "This section is in addition to any other provision made by this Act with regard to the provision of funding for a particular purpose." I wonder if the Minister and his advisers can draw my attention to the other provisions that are mentioned in this section. I am wondering where they are and what they encompass.
Section 30 deals with the judicial appointments commission's office. It states under subsection (6): "A member of staff of the office shall be a civil servant in the Civil Service of the State." I take that to mean that this person will be paid by the Civil Service and such moneys would not come out of the budget allocated to the commission?
