I move amendment No. 48:

In page 84, between lines 6 and 7, to insert the following:
"(2) Upon publication of the final report, the Director and/or other relevant Agency officials shall make themselves available to appear before the relevant Oireachtas Committees.".

This is a pretty straightforward amendment. It adds a provision to the Bill so that when a report is published regarding the review of an office of director of authorised intervention that relevant officials would make themselves available to attend the relevant joint committees. Doing so would provide Members with an opportunity to scrutinise the report and engage officials on the content.
