I move amendment No. 27:

In page 20, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following: “(3) (a) Where the determination includes a determination that the applicant is a relevant person, and where an applicant has provided any testimony or evidence of their lived experiences, including by means other than an affidavit, of their time spent in a relevant institution, a notification under subsection (1) shall further include a statement of recognition of those lived experiences.

(b) A statement of recognition under this subsection may include, but not be limited to, recognition of lived experiences of—
(i) forced family separation,

(ii) racial discrimination and abuse, and

(iii) non-consensual or illegal medical experimentation.”.
