The Minister has indicated his intention to bring forward amendments on Report Stage. I understand his wish to get the legislation right and the risk of unintended consequences from rushed legislation. However, I do not want something that has the potential to save lives unnecessarily delayed. Tabling amendments on Report Stage does not give us an opportunity to suggest amendments, which weakens the legislation.
