Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
The Bill states that the agency may periodically review a licence, etc. I feel, in the interests of safety and of protecting the environment, that a licence should be reviewed at any time but my amendment shortens the period from three years to two years. That is reasonable. The Bill provides that it shall do so periodically. Perhaps the Minister should consider reducing the period to two years.
