I move amendment No. 26:

In page 22, line 28, to delete “renewable”.

The Bill, as presented initially, included the word "renewable" in relation to the contract of the CEO. With amendment No. 27, I propose to change that to "(which contract may be renewed)". It is more legally robust. Amendment No. 26 seeks to delete the reference to "renewable" when referring to a written contract, and amendment No. 27 seeks to add the phrase "(which contract may be renewed)". I think it is more sensible and a better approach.
