I move amendment No. 10:

In page 18, between lines 25 and 26, to insert the following:

"Confidentiality of high-risk vendor notice 26.(1) The Minister may require a provider to which a high-risk vendor measure applies to treat as confidential the existence or contents of the measure and of the high-risk vendor notice in circumstances where the Minister considers that disclosure of the measures imposed by the notice or of the contents of the notice would be contrary to the interests of national security or public order.

(2) A provider that fails to comply with a requirement made under subsection (1)commits an offence and is liable—
(a) on summary conviction, to a class A fine or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months, or both, or
