I move amendment No. 44:
In page 23, subsection (1), lines 39 to 41, to delete all words from and including "If" in line 39 down to and including "may" in line 41 and substitute the following:
"If an inspector or an authorised officer acting on the advice of a veterinary practitioner has reasonable grounds for believing that a protected animal is injured
or suffering or is in a state of neglect or distress, the inspector or officer may".
