The Central Applications Office is listed separately and would not be affected by my amendment No. 8, as is SOLAS and a number of other bodies. My concern is with reference to "any other body". I accept it is a very substantial concession for the Minister of State to take directly identifiable personal data out of this exchange of information, but there are still caveats. Perhaps a further amendment might be allowed for the delay in the exchange of information until proper legal provision has been made. We can consider that further on Report Stage.

I will not press the amendment because I realise it will be overtaken by amendment No. 13, but I will reserve the right to reintroduce it on Report Stage.
