I move amendment No.1:

In page 3, between lines 9 and 10, to insert the following:
"PART 1

PRELIMINARY AND GENERAL
Short title and commencement

1. (1) This Act may be cited as the Maternity Protection, Employment Equality and Preservation of Certain Records Act 2024.

(2) This Act, other than section 6, shall come into operation on such day or days as the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth may appoint by order or orders either generally or with reference to any particular purpose or provision and different days may be so appointed for different purposes or different provisions.

(3) Section 6 shall come into operation on such day or days as the Minister for Social Protection may appoint by order or orders either generally or with reference to any particular purpose or provision and different days may be so appointed for different purposes or different provisions.".

I will speak to all of group A amendments if that is all right.
