I move amendment No. 7:

In page 8, lines 6 and 7, to delete "should in the circumstances have known" and substitute ", in the circumstances, could reasonably have been expected to have known".

This amendment was well aired yesterday and the Minister of State promised to think about it overnight. We felt that it was unreasonable that if the system broke down the person charged must pay the price.
