Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I also thank the Chair of the Committee. We were requesting the Minister if he could consider together with hon. Members that the amendments instead have sub-clause (c). Where you have a representative of a Cabinet Secretary we have the representative of the livestock council.
