Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (Covid-19) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2020-03-27
============================================================

Lorraine Clifford-Lee (FF), Cultural and Educational Panel

I move amendment No. 1:
In page 6, lines 24 and 25, to delete “such day as the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government may by order appoint” and substitute “the 30th day of March 2020”.
I will not labour the point but this amendment seeks to give clarity that the commencement date is 30 March. I hope the Minister will accept that.
