I tabled an amendment to the section on Committee Stage and, in fairness to the Minister, she gave a commitment that if I withdrew it, she would address the issue on Report Stage. She has, indeed, addressed the fact that the draft legislation stated "shall not penalise" and did not include "a threat to penalise". I welcome her commitment and her following through on it.
