I move amendment No. 20:

In page 10, line 26, to delete “as soon as practicable” and substitute “without unnecessary delay”.

The amendment is intended to reflect the wording in the directive, which is "without unnecessary delay". I think it is important to use the wording of the directive if we seek to transpose it into Irish law.
