That provision, the present section 8, as we see it, has two main concerns. One is, as you say, that citizenship can be passed on to endless generations because of the provisions; however, that individual stops being a citizen on their 28th birthday unless they take certain action.
The difficulty with this is that it's not always possible for us to know they exist and for them to know what action they have to take. So the present provision of section 8 has two fairly significant problems, which is why the minister said, when she appeared before the committee on May 29 this past year, it was important for the provision to stop at the first generation: in order to stop the passing on of citizenship to endless generations.
