Ultimately ISIF would have to decide if it meets the obligations that are contained within the legislation. It can be provided for that SMEs up to a certain size could be exempted from the responsibilities under it. It depends on where one sets that size. It has to be set at a level that continues to maintain the impact of the Bill and its intent. That would have to be considered in relation to the amendments and amendments could be worked out on that.
