I move amendment No. 10:

In page 6, line 21, to delete "one or more" and substitute "all".

This amendment is logical. It places greater emphasis on the accountability of developers of strategic infrastructure. This is a sensible amendment.

Amendment No. 22 seeks to strengthen environmental safeguards in the Bill. It deals with significant ecological elements that are not securely anchored in the Bill, such as the effects of component structures and the functioning of affected ecosystems. The Bill ignores those important elements and I seek to address that in this amendment.
