It is generally the practice of the Parliamentary Counsel in the Attorney General's office not to reuse section or paragraph numbers because to do so can cause confusion. For example, a reference to paragraph (d) in future legislation might inadvertently be taken to refer to paragraph (d) being substituted by this provision. Accordingly, I am not in a position to accept the amendment.
