I move amendment No. 16:

In page 8, subsection (1), lines 44 and 45, to delete "access and receive" and substitute "input, access and retrieve".

This is a straightforward amendment. Section 11 provides for access by the State to the Europol information system and in doing so gives effect to Article 13 of the Council decision. However, the existing subsection (1) refers only to the right of the national unit and liaisons officers to access and receive data and omits their function of inputting data into the system in line with Article 13. The amendment corrects the oversight in this regard.
