Circular Economy, Waste Management (Amendment) and Minerals Development (Amendment) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-06-30
============================================================

Ossian Smyth (GP), Dún Laoghaire

Amendment No. 8 is a small drafting amendment relating to the drafting of a poverty impact assessment under section 7. The amendment ensures that the Minister can procure the services of an expert group or body to carry out the assessment, if required, and that it does not have to be carried out by his or her Department.
There are other amendments grouped with this one. May I address those?
