Sea-Fisheries (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2021: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-03-02
============================================================

Lynn Boylan (SF), Agricultural Panel

I move amendment No. 12:
In page 18, to delete line 25 and substitute the following:
“(b) involved a serious infringement and not minor in nature giving due regard to all of the facts of the case, and".
Amendments Nos. 12 and 13, which will be discussed later, are similar. Amendment No. 12 seeks to delete the provision that an appeal can only be taken based on a point of law. Sinn Féin believes that law the Minister is proposing is fatally flawed. Restricting an appeal to a point of bad law is unacceptable. We ask that the Minister remove this from the Bill.
