I move amendment No. 55:

In page 42, line 35, to delete "A Director may," and substitute "Where human remains of more than one person have been recovered, a Director may,".

This is another minor technical amendment. It aims to support the correct interpretation of the section regarding directing the taking of samples from human remains. It is unlikely that remains of only one person will be recovered. However, if this was to be the case, a director would not have to direct taking samples from a proportion of human remains.
