Speaker, I move:
That the House -
(1) notes the President's reservations on Parliament's compliance with section 18(1) of the Traditional Leadership and Governance Framework Act of 2003 during its consideration of the Intellectual Property Laws Amendment Bill; and
(2) notwithstanding the views of the Portfolio Committee on Trade and Industry on this matter, adopts the report with the insertion of the following amendment as paragraph 5.5 under the report's recommendations, namely: "the Intellectual Property Laws Amendment Bill, as reintroduced in terms of paragraph 5.3 of the report of the committee, be referred to the National House of Traditional Leaders with a request for its comment in terms of the relevant statutory provision and the Rules".
I thank you.
There was no debate.
The motion is that the report be adopted. Are there any objections? None.
Mr Chairman, I think you need to put the motion to the House together with the report just for the correctness of the records. The Chief Whip moved the motion and you put the report to the House as amended. So it should first be the motion, then the amended report, just to get it right.
You are correct. Let us start again. Are there any objections to the report being adopted? None. Are there any objections to the report being adopted as amended? None.
Motion agreed to.
Report, as amended, accordingly adopted.
