I have three concerns. Further debate is warranted on decision-making. There is a fundamental flaw with respect to the model we are using. On Report Stage I intend to propose an amendment with respect to the Minister of State's recommendations on section 7. I am concerned in particular about decision-making and the assistance of decision-making in that process. The Minister of State is proposing a feature of informal decision-making and even after the amendment will be removed, there would be unintentional consequences. I wish to assist the Minister of State with a proposal that would technically enhance her proposals.
