Seanad Éireann debate -
Wednesday, 4 Jul 1923

Vol. 1 No. 30

CENSORSHIP OF FILMS BILL, 1923. - AMENDMENT.

At the end of Section 3 a new Sub-section, as follows, has been added:—
"A person shall be disqualified for being a member of the Appeal Board if he has, directly or indirectly, any share or interest in any Company or undertaking, having as its object or one of its objects, the exhibition of pictures by means of a cinematograph or similar apparatus, or the production of pictures capable of being so exhibited;"
with the following consequential amendment:—
In Section 3 (4), after the word "death," occurring at page 3, line 43, and page 4, line 3, the words "becoming disqualified" have been inserted.

I beg to propose: "That the Seanad agrees with the amendments made by the Dáil, with the addition of the words ‘for profit' after the word ‘exhibition.'" This is not intended to exclude any person not engaged in business who might be interested otherwise.

I beg to second the motion.

Question put and agreed to.
