I apologise on behalf of Senator Warfield, who cannot be here today. Amendment No. 39 will insert after the word "violent" the words "accidental, homicidal, undetermined or suspicious deaths". This will expand the criteria listed in the section by which An Garda Síochána would have to be alerted to evidence of human remains. The current requirements are quite limited and, therefore, there is a significant possibility some deaths would not be adequately examined if such a death were to occur.
