I move amendment No. 126:

In page 69, line 34, after "as" to insert the following "references to the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, and".

This amendment updates the references to the Minister, who is referred to in the Bill as the "Minister for the Environment and Local Government". The heritage portfolio was transferred to the Minister two years ago and now forms an important part of his responsibilities.
