Vol. 759 No. 2

Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2012: First Stage

Deputy Pearse Doherty

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to amend the Freedom of Information Act 1997 and the Freedom of Information (Amendment) Act 2003.

This Bill will give effect to bringing NAMA under the Freedom of Information Act and will return the pre-structure and appeal structure to pre-2003 levels.

An Leas-Cheann Comhairle

is the Bill opposed?

The Taoiseach

No.

Question put and agreed to.

An Leas-Cheann Comhairle

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

Deputy Pearse Doherty

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Question put and agreed to.
