I have listened to the concerns that have been raised in this area. I have brought forward an amendment similar to one that was put forward by Deputy Bacik that I believe addresses this issue. It recognises the diversity of situations that led to incorrect registrations, some of which were because of inaccuracies and some of which were because of the provision of false or misleading information.
Through the amendments I propose, this legislation will recognise that fact. That is the best way to address the concern raised by Deputies and groups.
