I move amendment No. 65:

In page 24, to delete lines 20 to 24 and substitute the following:

“26. (1) Where trees have been—(a) felled or otherwise removed without a licence under section 7,

(b) felled under a licence and, either at the time of such felling or subsequently, a condition of the licence is contravened, or

(c) in the opinion of the Minister, seriously damaged,

the Minister may issue a replanting order in respect of the owner requiring him or her to replant or to fulfil any or all of the conditions that attached to the licence (or, in a case in which no licence was granted, any or all of the conditions that would, in the opinion of the Minister, have been attached to a licence had such been granted) in accordance with the provisions of the order.”.
