I move amendment No. 38:

In page 83, to delete lines 2 and 3.

Again, this issue was raised by Deputy Tóibín on Committee Stage. As indicated then, I propose this amendment to clarify that there is no intention to include small franchise retailers in the category of relevant grocery goods undertaking. The majority of such small franchisees have a threshold of less than €5 million per annum. The renumbering of subsequent indents is consequential on this removal.
