I move amendment No. 3:

In page 29, line 4, to delete “section 25(1)” and substitute “section 25(2)”.

This is another technical amendment which corrects a cross-referencing error in section 30(1)(a). Section 30 provides that in certain circumstances, where a conditional release order is transferred into the State from another member state, the latter will retain responsibility for any subsequent decisions that may be required. The section concerns only conditional release orders, which are the subject of section 25(2). Therefore, the cross-reference should be to that section rather than to section 25(1), which concerns suspended sentences.
