I must now deal with a postponed division relating to amendment No. 1 in the name of the Minister for Finance to the Second Stage motion on the Insurance (Restriction on Differential Pricing and Profiling) Bill 2021, taken on Wednesday, 17 February 2021. On the question, "That the amendment be made", a division was claimed and in accordance with Standing Order 80(2) that division must be taken now.
Insurance (Restriction on Differential Pricing and Profiling) Bill 2021: Second Stage (Resumed) [Private Members]
The following motion was moved by Deputy Pearse Doherty on 17 February 2021: "That the Bill be now read a Second Time."
Debate resumed on amendment No. 1:
To delete all words after “That” and substitute the following:
"Dáil Éireann resolves that the Insurance (Restriction on Differential Pricing and Profiling) Bill 2021 be deemed to be read a second time this day nine months, to allow for greater analysis of the complex issues concerned following the publication of the Central Bank’s final report on differential pricing later this year; and for such considerations to be taken into account in further scrutiny of the Bill."
