I move amendment No. 22:


In page 13, subsection (4), lines 38 to 42, to delete all words from and including “under” in line 38 down to and including “child” in line 42 and substitute the following:
“under section 8(1)(a), (b) or (c), whether in proceedings before a court or otherwise ensure that the views of that individual child, where that child is capable of forming and expressing his or her own views, be ascertained and given due weight in accordance to the age and maturity of the child”.
