I wish to flag that this is the amendment I want to bring forward on Report Stage. This section repeals existing provisions within the principal Act pertaining to the availability of a three-year cap to owners of farm or business assets who require nursing home care as a result of sudden illness or disability. The section adds additional provisions to paragraph 6 of Part 3 of Schedule 1 to the primary Act to allow for relevant farm and business assets to be eligible for the three-year cap following a determination under section 14C, which is what we discussed in the previous ten minutes.
