I move amendment No. 7:

In page 15, lines 8 and 9, to delete all words from and including "for" in line 8 down to and including "appropriate" in line 9.

This is my last effort to put my stamp on the legislation. The reason for this amendment goes back to my party's attempt to ensure greater levels of transparency surround the processing of applications and the decision-making methodology. I suggest the environmental impact statement and other documentation upon which a decision is based should be made available for an unlimited period in the same way that a planning decision may be queried and the paperwork surrounding same is available for an unlimited period.
