I move government amendment (4):

Clause 3, page 3 (lines 9 to 11), omit "those responsible for using, designing, manufacturing and distributing products to take responsibility for those products", substitute "manufacturers, importers, distributors, designers and other persons to take responsibility for products".

Again, it is a change to the objects of the act in clause 3. This clarifies those who are responsible for products, particularly for the purposes of product stewardship, and it includes the phrase 'manufacturers, importers, distributors, designers and other persons to take responsibility for products'.
