I move amendment No. 64:


In page 84, between lines 16 and 17, to insert the following:“(3) Subject to this section, when making regulations under this section, the Minister may prescribe one or more classes (whether retailers, suppliers or wholesalers) of relevant grocery goods undertakings or grocery goods undertakings to which one or more of the regulations shall apply.”.
The amendment proposes that the regulations may be limited to one or more type of relevant grocery goods undertakings if so desired rather than applying them to all such undertakings every time regulations are made.

That was not clear from the existing text. Amendments Nos. 67 to 69, inclusive, are consequential amendments on foot of amendment No. 64.
