Pauline Tully (SF), Cultural and Educational Panel

I move amendment No. 9:
In page 5, between lines 6 and 7, to insert the following:
"(9A) Notwithstanding subsection (9), the court may, in making an order under subsection (2), specify that a longer period shall apply before an application for removal may be made, having regard to—
(a) the nature and seriousness of the offence, and
(b) the need to protect the safety and wellbeing of the victim and, where relevant, any children or dependents.".
