Judicial Appointments Commission Bill 2017: Committee Stage (Resumed)
10:30 am
David Norris (Independent) | Oireachtas source
I move amendment No. 105c:
In page 37, to delete line 12.
The amendment seeks to remove line 12 on page 37 which reads:
"(1) The Procedures Committee shall monitor and review—(a) the implementation of this Act including in particular—(i) the practical operation of the published statement,
(ii) the diversity among candidates for judicial appointment,"
Senator McDowell wishes to remove the line which reads "(ii) the diversity among candidates for judicial appointment,". The deletion would remove the procedures committee from the responsibility of monitoring and reviewing the diversity among candidates for judicial appointment.
