Amendment No. 46 seeks to add types of items that the Minister may, by regulation, prohibit the supply of in the State. I refer to a matter that was not mentioned in the previous section, that is, a ban on virgin plastics. I want to get that on the record for the next session.
Amendment No. 46 seeks to give the Minister the power to ban the supply of electronic items with absolute obsolescence built in, while amendment No. 48 seeks to give him the power to ban the supply of electronic items with relative obsolescence built in.
