I move amendment No. 47: In page 25, to delete lines 9 and 10 and substitute the following: “(b) such number of members of Limerick City and County Council appointed by the Mayor as the Mayor considers appropriate, who shall be nominated for appointment in accordance with paragraph 18 of Schedule 2 to the Local Government Act 2001, and". Amendment No. 81 proposes adding a new section in the Bill to empower the mayor of Limerick to apply for EU funding on behalf of Limerick City and County Council.

As regards the responsibilities that move to the mayor, the mayor is responsible to the chamber. If the mayor - we dealt with this previously - delegates certain activities to the CEO, the CEO is ultimately answerable to the mayor and the mayor is still answerable to the chamber in those activities.
