Similar to my colleague, could the Minister outline more specifically the thinking behind section 9 and the amendment to the 2010 Act? I refer in particular to the idea that the designated person knows or has reasonable grounds to believe that a customer is residing in a place outside of the State or is or has become a politically exposed person or an immediate family member or close associate? It is a very broadly drafted measure and perhaps the Minister could provide some more explanation. As someone who has practised as a solicitor, I think it is incredibly broadly drafted.
