I move amendment No. 56:

In page 27, line 27, to delete “5 years” and substitute “1 year”.

I will withdraw the amendment on the basis of the Minister of State's comments. However, I ask him to consider our concern. It is a matter of proportionality. I take on board the point that it will be quite arduous to get the licence or authorisation and get the system up and running in the first place. It is a matter of what would be a reasonable timeframe for that to go on for. I ask the Minister of State to consider that.
