Mr. Martin, I will explain the rationale as it's been explained to me by the legislative clerk.
Because an earlier decision has been taken on a previous clause, if we do change clause 12 as it's being proposed, your amendment changes the part when it comes into force. If we go back to clause 2, it will effectively make clause 2 ineffective because it would come into force, if I understand it that way.
If you would like to seek a more clear answer from the legislative clerk, I would be happy to give him the floor.
