International Interests in Mobile Equipment (Cape Town Convention) Bill 2005: Committee and Remaining Stages.
3:00 pm
Brendan Ryan (Labour)
Not quite, although I will not hold up Members for long. I have a question on Article 44.1, on page 27. It states: "The courts of the place in which the Registrar has its centre of administration [which will be in this country] shall have exclusive jurisdiction to award damages or make orders against the Registrar." I am not sure how the protocol's provision that orders may be made against the registrar is reconcilable with section 11, which provides that no order may be made against the registrar that would stop him doing what he is supposed to be doing.
