I move amendment No. 4:

In page 6, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following:

""Agreement establishing the World Trade Organisation" means the Agreement establishing the World Trade Organisation done at Marrakesh on 15 April 1994 as amended or supplemented by any protocol to that Agreement which is for the time being in force in the State;".

This group of amendments seeks to insert some necessary new definitions and to extend and clarify existing definitions under the Bill. The amendments are inserted as advised by the Parliamentary Counsel and define references relating to the World Trade Organisation and to member states of the European Union. They relate to the mutual recognition of building professionals from other EU and WTO countries.
