I move amendment No. 2:

In page 14, line 31, after "shall" to insert ", within 2 months,".

We discussed an amendment of similar wording on Committee Stage. The purpose of the amendment is that the commissioner shall within two months of making the application referred to in section 27 "appoint an officer of the Commissioner to exercise, in relation to the property or properties to which the application relates, the powers expressed by this section to be exercisable by a revision manager, and such manager who is so appointed is also referred to in this Act as a 'revision manager'."

Amendment No. 3 would substitute "within 6 months" with "within 4 months". This means the subsection would begin, "A revision manager shall, if the property concerned is property that has been the subject of an application under section 27, within 4 months from the date of his or her appointment under subsection (3) in respect of that application". Essentially, in both cases, I am trying shorten the timeline involved. In the first case it is to two months and in the second case, the six-month period would be shortened to four months.
