I move amendment No. 392:

In page 84, line 37, to delete “Central Authority may not” and substitute “central authority in the State shall not”.

I interrupt to indicate that the Government will bring in an amendment on Report Stage in relation to clinical trials. We are awaiting legal advice on that, which is why it is not here now. I acknowledge that we might be adding to the Bill on Report State, but it is important to be as comprehensive as possible. We will be introducing that in relation to section 103. While that is a bit later, I indicate now that we will be doing it.
