Part 7 of Schedule 2 makes amendments to the Planning and Development Act 2000 necessitated by the provisions in the main body of the Bill. I propose this amendment to make a further consequential change to section 96(13) of the 2000 Act, as amended. Section 96(13) refers to the provision of housing for persons referred to in section 9(2) of the Housing Act 1988. Section 9 of the 1998 Act is repealed in Schedule 1 of the Bill. This amendment substitutes reference to section 20 of the Bill for the reference in section 96(13) to section 9(2) of the 1988 Act.
