Seanad Éireann debate -
Wednesday, 20 May 1942

Vol. 26 No. 14

Referendum Bill, 1941—Message from the Dáil.

The following Message was received from the Dáil:—

Dáil Eireann has agreed to amendments Nos. 1 to 6, inclusive, and to amendment No. 8, made by Seanad Eireann to the Referendum Bill, 1941. In lieu of amendment No. 7, it has made the following amendment:—

First Schedule.

In rule 29, page 27, after the word "constituency" in line 43, to insert the words "and any member of the Seanad Eireann", and in line 48, after the word "Eireann" to insert the words "or of Seanad Eireann",

to which the agreement of Seanad Eireann is desired.

I move: That the Seanad do not insist on amendment No. 7 made by it to the Referendum Bill, 1941, and agrees to the amendment in lieu thereof made by Dáil Eireann to the Bill.

I have looked into this and think it is an improvement. It is largely consequential on the amendments I inserted, and I believe we should agree to it.

Question put and agreed to.
Message to be sent to the Dáil acquainting that House accordingly.
