I move amendment No. 7:



In page 7, line 37, after “decision” to insert “within 90 days”.
This is an issue relating to the wording "as soon as may be after it is made". My concern is that the other issues in the Department take over. The Minister said it is already in place but I believe that deadlines are important because one knows whether one meets the deadline. However, down the line we might wonder whether a particular regulation was ever put in place only to find that because there was no deadline, there was no real need to do it. I suggest that "as soon as may be after it is made" is a loose term.
