I move that the Committee agree with the Seanad in amendment No. 3:
Section 40: In page 18, line 26, "with the bodies specified in sections 9 (1) (a), 9 (1) (b), 9 (1) (c), 9 (1) (d) and 9 (1) (e) of this Act, and" inserted after "consultation".
We have now moved on to section 40. The amendments which follow are nearly all the result of discussions I have had with medical organisations about the new post-graduate education and training board. The purpose of this amendment is to ensure that where the new board advises the Minister it shall specifically consult with the bodies set out in section 9—University College Cork, Dublin, Galway, Trinity College, College of Surgeons and so on. The amendment ensures that the board will consult with these teaching institutions before it advises me on these matters.
