I move amendment No. 10:

In page 11, between lines 13 and 14, to insert the following:“(2) For the purposes of this section, where an electoral area, which was changed or created by the 2018 revision of local electoral areas, and contains areas which were previously in an electoral area which was a rent pressure zone, the new electoral area shall be deemed in its entirety a rent pressure zone, where the majority of the properties in the new electoral area were previously in the rent pressure zone. Where the majority of the new electoral area was not in a rent pressure zone previously, then the Minister shall initiate a review within 6 months of the passing of this Act, in order to determine whether an area should be included in the rent pressure zone or not.”.
