I move amendment No. 109d:

In page 38, between lines 9 and 10, to insert the following:“57. When establishing the Procedures Committee under section 16 the Committee shall include in its membership both the practising barrister and the practising solicitor appointed under section 13.”.

It is important to have a wide view from the legal profession of these kinds of matters and to have both a barrister and a solicitor represented in the discussions. For that reason, it is important that we accept this amendment.
