I present a supplementary explanatory memorandum to the bill and move the government amendment as circulated:

(1) Schedule 1, item 133, page 67 (after line 4), after subitem (5), insert:

(5A) However, the Joint Authority must not consent under section 270 of the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 to the surrender, in whole or in part, of the new licence unless the pipeline to which the licence relates has been removed from the surrender area to the satisfaction of NOPSEMA. This has effect despite subparagraph 270(3)(c)(ii) and subsection 270(5) of that Act.
