Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. We are saying that we want to amend and replace provision 16 of the Sexual Offences Act, 2011 to deal with child pornography. Basically, we are moving Clause 13 from this Bill to the Sexual Offences Act. This is to amend Section 16 of the Sexual Offences Act, 2011 to harmonise its provisions with those of the deleted clause.
