I move amendment No. 5:

In page 18, after line 37, to insert the following: “Review of operation of Act

19.The Minister shall, not later than 3 years after the commencement of this Act, carry out a review of the operation of this Act.".

The amendment is self-explanatory and sets out that not later than three years after commencement of the Act, the Minister will review it and report on its performance and that of its relevant sections. It is a common amendment in all Acts and it is important to have an established form of review for legislation after it is passed. The provision should be included in the Bill.
