I move amendment No. 184:

In page 51, after line 8, to insert the following:“(5) Where, before the coming into operation of this section, an application had been made for the grant of an employment permit but a decision in respect of the application had not been made by the Minister, then the application shall be deemed to be an application under the Act of 2006 as amended by this Act and shall be dealt with accordingly and any act done by the Minister before such coming into operation in relation to the application (being an act required to be taken under the Act of 2006) shall be deemed to have been taken under the Act of 2006 as amended by this Act.
(6) Where evidence has been given through a live television link in accordance with section 35 of the Act of 2006 and has been video recorded in accordance with section 35(2) of the Act of 2006, the repeal of section 35(2) of the Act of 2006 bySection 32(e) shall not affect the validity of such video recording in respect of the proceedings concerned where such proceedings have not been finally determined before the coming into operation of section 32(e).”.
