I move amendment No. 11:

In page 25, line 21, after "paragraph" to insert the following:

"and, in the case of electronic mail, provided also that the individual has consented to receive legal notices by email, that the matter is one of urgency, and that there is a facility to confirm that the recipient has received and read the mail and that this facility has been operated".

This amendment limits the circumstances in which electronic mail would be used to where the recipient has agreed to receive notices by e-mail and there is a degree of urgency in the communication.
