I move amendment No. 52:

In page 66, to delete lines 6 and 7 and substitute the following:

“it for the period to which an annual service plan relates, so inform the Board, the Authority and the Minister.”.

Currently, where the Commissioner feels he or she will exceed his or her resources for the year, he or she is only obliged to tell the Minister and the board. This amendment seeks to introduce the added obligation to tell the authority, again, adding to its powers.
