I move amendment No. 4:

In page 6, line 21, after "2001" to insert the following:

", the text of which in the English language (including the Annex to it) is set out in the Schedule".

This amendment is an extension of the definition of the convention. Later in the Bill, at section 7(2) I think, there is a reference to the fact that the convention is reprinted in the Schedule. It seems to me this is a more appropriate Part of the Bill in which to include this reference. The acceptance of this amendment would also suggest that section 7(2) should be deleted. The definition should outline where the text of the convention is to be found for the sake of simplification.
