I move amendment No. 1:

In page 4, subsection (1)(a), lines 14 to 15, to delete "that established the team".

The purpose of the amendment is to make the section clearer. We put it to the Minister of State that the qualifier "that established the team" provided for in paragraph (a) is inappropriate. For example, if the State and another state establish a team and a third state joins the team, the members of the third state would not be seconded members under the Minister's definition because that state would not have established the team. That is the reasoning behind the amendment.
