THE DAIL RESUMES.

I move that the Bill be received for final consideration.

Comment on this

Might I suggest that the Minister should go through the clauses and wherever he sees the words "Minister of Finance" that he should alter the word "of" to "for," to make it conform with the rest? In some clauses the Minister is described as "the Minister of Finance" and in others as "the Minister for Finance." I understand that the correct form is "Minister for Finance," and there are variations right through the Bill.

You use both terms in the first Section.

I think we should alter the first one to read "Minister of Finance" instead of "Minister for Finance."

Comment on this

"The Minister for Finance" is the official title.

It was decided once before in early legislation that it should be "Minister for Finance."

Comment on this

The Bill was introduced by the Minister for Finance and I move that in all cases where the word "of" appears the word "for" should be substituted when it connects "Minister" and "Finance."

Agreed.
