I move amendment No. 59:

In page 33, between lines 26 and 27, to insert the following:

“Circumstances in which owner of land is given notice 9.(1) All landowners with a recognised Registered Monument on their lands shall be personally notified of its presence, type, significance, and attendant legal protection.

(2) All relevant landowners would be legally obliged to notify and inform any future owners of said property of the presence and legal status of the Registered Monument.

(3) In the event of a Registered Monument being damaged or destroyed, an enforcement order shall be placed on its footprint guaranteeing the protection of the surviving subsurface elements of the monument, and the legally protected associated artefacts.”
