I will speak to amendments Nos. 10 and 12. They relate to saying that the applicant has been trafficked instead of saying that the application is credible. It removes the credibility requirement because it is in contravention of the EU anti-trafficking directive and Irish case law. I hope that the Minister would take this on board.
