I beg to move amendment No. 15, in

clause 8, page 5, line 19, leave out subsection (7) and insert—

‘(7)Regulations under this Act may not be made unless the Secretary of State has consulted the Technical Advisory Committee in accordance with section 9(3) and he is satisfied, and the Technical Advisory Committee has advised him that it is satisfied, that the Regulations—

(a)are proportionate to what is sought to be achieved by them in respect of the preservation of the national intellectual archive;

(b)are practicable and not excessive for the publisher required to comply with those Regulations; and

(c)do not conflict with the normal exploitation of any work, or category of work, to which this Act applies or would unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the owner(s) of the copyright or any rights of a similar nature in any such work;’.
