My Department has recently carried out a public consultation in relation to this issue. A total of over 50 submissions were received, from interested parties, as a result of this consultation. A number of these submissions contained legal argument in relation to the issue, as well as detailed comments in respect of the draft Statutory Instrument which was published as part of the consultation process.

These comments are now being considered by my Department in conjunction with its legal advisor and the Office of the Attorney General.
