Defamation (Amendment) Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2026-01-21
============================================================

Maria Byrne (CC), Agricultural Panel

The debate now returns to Report Stage. Before we commence, I remind Senators that they can only speak once on Report Stage except for the proposer of the amendment who may reply to the discussion on the amendment. Each amendment must also be seconded on Report Stage.
Amendments Nos. 15 to 17, inclusive, are related. Amendment No. 17 is consequential on No. 16. Amendments Nos. 15 to 17, inclusive, may be discussed together by agreement. Is that agreed? Agreed.
