Maritime Jurisdiction Bill 2021: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2021-06-01
============================================================

Colm Brophy (FG), Dublin South-West

The amendment would also alter the terms of the convention, which would be reproduced here in section 18. The laying of a pipeline across Ireland's continental shelf would require a formal request, typically through diplomatic channels, by the state of nationality or registration of the pipeline operator. That is why only the term "state" is used here. Therefore, I am not in a position to accept the amendment.
