I move amendment No. 5:

In page 4, between lines 16 and 17, to insert the following:

""maximum fine", in respect of a specified amount or within a specified range, includes a fixed fine of that amount or within that range;".

The purpose of the amendment is to ensure that amounts of fines specified in the Bill can be varied by order so that the Bill does not get out of date. That is the effective justification.
