I move amendment No. 269:

In page 204, to delete lines 14 to 17.

Amendment No. 269 removes the text that excludes minerals extraction from the MAC requirement. Such activities will be subject to the new regime. Amendment No. 270 does the same in respect of gas pipelines. Amendment No. 271 clarifies that activities subject to licensing under this Act do not also require a MAC under section 73. Amendment No. 272 is a technical amendment relating to the licensing exclusion under section 74. Amendment No. 273 ensures minerals extraction activities are subject to the new regime. Amendment No. 274 ensures that gas pipelines are subject to the new regime.
