I move amendment No. 267:

In page 188, to delete lines 26 to 36, and in page 189, to delete lines 1 to 9.

We may table an amendment to section 10 of the Foreshore Act on Report Stage.

Amendment No. 267 proposes to delete all of section 181. Work is ongoing to refine this provision and it is expected that it will be amended on Report Stage. I seek to withdraw amendment No. 267 and return to it on Report Stage. I will instruct my officials to continue engagement and examine it further with a view to finalising text on Report Stage.

In circumstances where it is intended that section 181 will be further refined and amended on Report Stage, Deputies Higgins and McAuliffe may be agreeable to withdrawing their amendment No. 268.
