My amendment No. 5 is probably rendered obsolete by amendment No. 7, but I would like the Minister and his officials to clarify that. My concern with lines 22 and 23 under "strategic housing development" mean that by including the "or" it was possible through an unintended consequence to allow a mixed-use residential development which would have had less than 100 units to be included under the Act, which is why I tabled my amendment. However, if what the Minister has proposed in amendment No. 4 deals with that point, then I am happy to withdraw amendment No. 5.
