I understood the Minister's response to be that if we keep the amendments in section 1, the rest of the text will remain numbered as is currently. This would mean that anything outside of the Act, whether it be academic writings, productions within the Department of Justice, the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth or anything else that refers to those subsections will remain accurate, whereas if we renumber, anything that refers to this section of the Act will therefore become redundant. That is my understanding of the Minister's response.
