I welcome the commitment given by Minister that on withdrawal of my amendment he will seek further advice on it. I appreciate that he probably needs to take a timeout with his officials and to think it through with a cool head. I can resubmit my amendment on Report Stage. The deletion still gives the Minister the discretion that he needs because it leaves him with the overall powers. I have used a good wording and I appreciate that the Minister has committed to examine the matter. We can revisit the issue on Report Stage, if necessary.
