I move amendment No. 13:

In page 14, to delete lines 17 and 18.

This amendment seeks to address the restriction of limiting an intervention to a specific area rather than empowering the director to intervene in any location as the evidence presents itself. Currently when establishing the office, the director will be given a particular location to work within, with the provision that the Minister may adjust this. However, at each stage there are multiple criteria and restrictions. Instead of this complicated process, why not ensure the director operates according to agreed protocols instead of having the geographical range of their work limited by legislation?
