I move amendment No. 33:

In page 17, line 25, to delete “30 days” and substitute “10 days”.

This amendment proposes to delete 30 days and substitute ten days. It is in keeping with the spirit of the council's independence and ensuring that the council can act as an effective watchdog and that its report should be published as swiftly as possible. The potential for the Minister to delay reports for up to three months is entirely unnecessary. The amendment will reduce this time period to ten days.
