Research and Innovation Bill 2024: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-04-23
============================================================

Tom Clonan (IND), University of Dublin

Okay. The amendment states: "In this Act, nothing should violate and instead seek to uphold the principles of parity of esteem (between disciples) and of academic freedom cited in Impact 2030, Ireland’s Research and Innovation Strategy and European standards of good practice.” I wish to reiterate those concerns and have that statement inserted explicitly into the Act. Will I move to amendment number 13?
