I move amendment No. 1:
To delete all words after "Dáil Éireann" and substitute the following:
":
— resolves that sections 2 to 4, 6 to 12 and 17 of the Offences against the State (Amendment) Act 1998 (No. 39 of 1998) shall continue in operation for the period beginning on 30th June, 2024 and ending on 29th June, 2025, and
— accepting the recommendation of the Independent Review Group on the Offences against the State Acts that 'the current system of "scheduled offences", under which certain offences are automatically or presumptively tried by a non-jury court, should be abolished', and also in the absence of sufficient information to support an informed finding as to the adequacy or otherwise of the ordinary courts to secure the effective administration of justice and the preservation of public peace and order in relation to offences under the Act, declines to resolve that section 14 of the Act should continue in operation from or after 30th June, 2024.".
