Judicial Appointments Commission Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed)
2:30 pm
David Norris (Independent) | Oireachtas source
The Minister thinks the amendment would be too confining and confine it to the published statement only, but I am not sure that is true because section 56(4) contains the statement "the Procedures Committee shall, following a review under subsection (1), make a report to the Commission of its findings including any recommendations relating to the implementation of this Act including, but not limited to". I do not see, therefore, how it could be as disastrously confining as the Minister suggests, particularly taking into account the phrase "but not limited to".
