I move amendment No. 21:


In page 88, between lines 30 and 31, to insert the following:
“(r) specify Retention of Title for goods until such time as full payment is received,”.
I will be brief. This amendment is clear and proposes to insert between lines 30 and 31 the phrase, "specify Retention of Title for goods until such time as full payment is received", which I consider to be a reasonable request. I am disappointed thus far, unless the Minister can enlighten me further, that he does not intend to address this matter in this legislation. Most people would agree that such a provision would in particular strengthen further the position of producers of goods in the sector, were they to retain the title to the goods until they were paid for in full. This is a reasonable request and I will wait until I hear the Minister's response before deciding how to proceed.
