I move:

That the amendments be agreed to.

The amendments adopted by the Senate provide for a statutory review of the measures introduced by this bill. After 18 months, a review will ensure that the measures introduced and debated today can be assessed after an appropriate period of time and guarantee that companies engaged in serious criminal wrongdoing, like foreign bribery, feel the full force of the law.

Question agreed to.
