I wish to flag that I will be bringing an amendment forward at Report Stage. This section amends section 36 of the principal Act and allows the Minister, in respect of any difficulty which arises during the period of three years from the commencement of the Act of 2021, by regulations to do anything which appears to be necessary or expedient for bringing the amendments in the Act into operation. The section also allows the Minister, with the consent of the Minister for Finance, to make regulations to confer powers on the Revenue Commissioners with respect to the collection and recovery of repayable amounts under section 14(j). This provision will require a small technical amendment to section 21. I wish to flag this in advance of Report Stage, if that is okay with members.
