Criminal Justice (Smuggling of Persons) Bill 2021: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2021-10-07
============================================================

Barry Ward (FG), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I have a brief question on order and procedure. I recognise what the Senators are doing. In light of what they have said about the definitions they propose to insert in the context of later amendments that make reference to the term "humanitarian assistance", for example, a proposed new section 9 under amendment No. 12, is it in order to discuss those amendments now to give us all clarity on where the Senators are coming from? If amendment No. 1 is not accepted, what will happen to amendment No. 12? It might make more sense to discuss them all together.
