Our concern relates to the repeal of the prescription period of 12 years given to users against private owners of land in seeking to retain the prescriptive period of 30 years and 60 years for foreshore. Again, our concerns and the reasons we are flagging this is that we do not believe there has been proper consultation with the people who will be directly impacted by this. I ask the Minister of State to at least give a commitment that these issues will be examined as part of the review. On the basis of such a commitment, we would consider withdrawing the amendments. We would like a commitment from the Minister of State to look at our concerns around the prescriptive period.
