The Single Resolution Board (Loan Facility Agreement) Bill 2016 may be before the committee next week. If it is referred, we will take it next Thursday at 11 a.m.
Business of Committee
Is there not a gap between Second Stage and Committee Stage?
Yes, and the legislation meets that. It will be referred later today and we will deal with it next Thursday.
I thought there had to be a two-week gap.
I do not think so. That is the proposal.
If Committee Stage is taken next Thursday, when is the deadline for amendments? It only passed Second Stage last night.
At 11 a.m. tomorrow. That is a short time but that is the notification we have received.
I question that. I thought there was a commitment in the programme for Government to provide ample time. It passed Second Stage last night. I will try to work towards it.
I will check that. The Ceann Comhairle can accept late amendments.
It is a short Bill but it is important.
We have to ensure for the future that this arrangement is in place.
The select committee adjourned at 12.20 p.m. until 11 a.m. on Thursday, 7 July 2016.
