I move amendment No. 19:

In page 15, subsection (6), line 40, after "member" to insert ", on notice to the person concerned,".

The purpose of these amendments is to avoid any doubt in the event of an application to the High Court to compel persons to comply with directions and that those applications be made on notice. It would be unfair if such an application were made without notifying the person concerned. The purpose of the amendment is to make it absolutely clear that this notice is required under the legislation.
