• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: I have dropped Sub-clause (c) which is dealing with “statutory” view
• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- view
• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: THAT, Clause 44 of the Bill be amended in sub clause (1)- (d) by deleting sub clause (3) and substituting therefor the following new sub clause- “(2) The storage period in respect of embryos shall be a period not exceeding ten years or as the license may specify.” The main issue here is that we are replacing five years with 10. view
• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Why we are proposing five to 10 years is because technologically it is now possible to keep the embryo for 10 years. If the law drags behind technology and says five years, what happens is that people will start to do it anyway and they will still be within the safe limits biologically. So, technologically if it is possible to go to 10 years, then it is better to keep the law in pace with technology.

• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 46 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by deleting the word “compiled” appearing in paragraph (d) and substituting therefor the word “complied”. This is just to correct the typographical error. view
• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 47 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by inserting the word “not” immediately after the words “licensee is” appearing in paragraph (e). The explanation is that as it is, the provision does not make sense at all. It is talking of whether the person being licensed is suitable for the activities. It should read that “the authority may revoke a license if satisfied that the licensee is not a suitable person to hold the licence”. view

• 9 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 51 of the Bill be amended, by inserting the following new paragraph immediately before paragraph (a) - “(aa) monies allocated by Parliament for purposes of the Authority;”. The import of the amendment is that the Authority created by this Bill is so important that we cannot leave it to the proceeds that accrue from its activities. It should actually be funded from the Exchequer. view
