I will read the note. First, amendment No. 979 is consequential on amendments Nos. 954 to 956, inclusive. It attempts to retrofit some provisions regarding costs and timeframes without the necessary legal framework or consideration that underpins the Government’s own position, as reflected in Part 9, as initiated. I will therefore be opposing that. The cost provisions will deal with that issue of cost exposure that Deputy O'Callaghan mentioned in terms of the European Court of Justice ruling.
