Yes. Amendment No. 35 mentions reasons but not written reasons. Amendment No. 35 also states:

(a) to grant or refuse the application,

(b) if applicable, to make the specified order subject to exceptions or conditions, and

(c) to vary the exceptions or conditions referred to in paragraph (b).”.

We will look again at the area around amendment No. 6 and will try to improve that. I probably should have asked Senators to withdraw the amendment. However, I felt at the time that we would accept it with a view to amending it and that is what I suggest that we would do. I am prepared to bring forward an amendment to amendment No. 6. Amendment No. 35 is a different amendment and I have not looked at any conflict.
