I move amendment No. 1:

In page 7, subsection (4)(b), line 24, after "person" to insert the following:

"or the publication to the second-mentioned person was in the course of the performance of duties of a secretarial nature by the second-mentioned person (being a person whose relationship if any to the first-mentioned person is primarily based on contract) and there were no reasonable grounds to believe that the first-mentioned person would suffer any significant injury by reason only of such publication".

In the interests of brevity, I indicate formally that it is not my intention to pursue amendments Nos. 1 and 2.
