This group of amendments deals with the review of the Bill after its enactment. Amendment No. 115 which proposes the deletion of section 85, is consequential on the new review section inserted by Amendment No. 135a. Amendment No. 184 revises the original review provision in regard to the operation of the Bill. That review, which will now encompass the three new debt resolution processes in Part 3, will commence no later than three years after commencement and be completed within a year.

However, as I said when we discussed this point previously, the operation of this Bill will be subject to ongoing review. I have made it clear that I will swiftly intervene, with amending legislation, to make additional provision or to correct any error that arises from operational experience.
