I have a point on the section. Is the Minister aware of the submission we received from FLAC? It suggests the newly inserted subsection says subsections 1(d) and 1(e) are unnecessary and add nothing to what preceded them. Not only this but they could give rise to wrong interpretations. FLAC recommends that these provisions be deleted so perhaps the Minister could consider this between now and Report Stage.
