I understand better. I thank the Deputy. The Attorney General has advised us that this provision should be reworded by way of an amendment that provides for a specific reference to a power to acquire land compulsorily for the purpose of any mitigation whatsoever. In other words, the provision should not be so prescriptive that one might find oneself having less capability or flexibility. In removing the specific references, the amendment gives greater flexibility to the NTA to manage this process in a coherent way.
