Written Answers. - Wildlife (Amendment) Bill.
The Wildlife (Amendment) Bill, currently on Second Stage in Dáil Éireann, includes a number of proposed amendments to the Wildlife Act, 1976.
The Deputy may be aware that I indicated, in the course of my Second Stage speech in Dáil Éireann on 15 December last, that I am currently considering amendments to sections 46 and 51 of the Bill. These, along with a number of other amendments, the majority of them of a technical nature, are being considered at present and are the subject of discussions between my Department and the Office of the Attorney General.
