I move amendment No. 8:

In page 12, line 12, after "on" to insert "reasonable accommodation hereafter referred to as".

We want to insert the term "reasonable accommodation" in section 9 because that is the term used in the explanatory memorandum but it is also used in US law. We do not understand the reason it cannot be used in the Bill. I would like to hear the Minister's comments on it.
