Forestry (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2020-09-25
============================================================

David P.B. Norris (IND), University of Dublin

I am grateful to the Minister of State for accepting this amendment.
I was briefed on this extensively by a constituent, Ms Sabrina Joyce, who is a great grand-niece of the writer, James Joyce. She will be very glad to hear that this amendment was successful.
I appeal to the Leas-Chathaoirleach to revisit his judgment about amendments Nos. 101 and 102 in the name of Senator Higgins because the Title is the Forestry (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill. That takes in everything connected with forestry. There is no conflict. I ask the Leas-Chathaoirleach to look again at this because it is rather a pity.
It is a good day's work. It is great to start off and get amendment No. 1 through. It is another example of the Seanad working in a collaborative manner with the Government.
