I move amendment No. 6:

In page 12, between lines 9 and 10, to insert the following: “Amendment of section 58 of Act of 2001

11.Section 58(1) (as amended by section 7 of the Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences) (Amendment) Act 2021) of the Act of 2001 is amended, in paragraph (a), by the substitution of “(other than Part 5 or 6)” for “(other than Part 6)”.”.

This is an amendment to section 58 of the Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences) Act 2001. As Deputies will note and as previously discussed, section 9 of the Bill applies an updated and robust corporate liability regime in respect of the offences under Part 5 of the 2001 Act. This regime replaces the provisions of section 58, which is being amended accordingly.
