I move amendment No. 29:

In page 13, line 36, after “accordingly.”, to insert the following: “The Minister will ensure the following in relation to the membership of the committee:

(a) all members of the committee must go through the public appointments service;

(b) candidates may only be considered once they have completed their application through the public appointments service;

(c) that gender balance is reflected in its membership; and

(d) at least one appointee has expertise, or professional experience, on the subject of poverty, just transition and climate justice.”.

I will press this amendment.
