I move amendment No. 4:
In page 9, subsection (1), line 7, after "any" to insert "one or more".
This is a technical amendment the purpose of which is to ensure that the word "any" in subsection (1) when referring to the functions of a health board is not interpreted as meaning "all". I want the Minister to have the power to intervene where he or she is satisfied that a health board is not performing any one or more of its functions and would not be confined to intervening where, in the view of the Minister, the health board was not performing its functions at all. It is to remove an ambiguity in the original wording. There is a possibility that the current draft could be interpreted as restricting the Minister's powers to instances where a board is failing to perform all of its functions.
