I move amendment No. 1:

In page 8, between lines 28 and 29, to insert the following: “(2) Every regulation served on or given to a person under subsection (1)(a)to (c)shall be signed as received by the person for whom it is served or given, or by a person acting on their behalf.”.

I think the amendment is self-explanatory. I am not sure why this has not been provided for. It might be that I am wrong and that it is implied and understood, and if that is the case, I am content to withdraw the amendment, but we need to be careful that we ensure the regulations served on or given to a person should be signed and received by the person on whom they are served or by a person acting on their behalf. It is a belt, braces and baler twine approach, but if it is the case that this has been provided for, I will be happy to hear that from the Minister of State.
