Our next group of amendments is group 6. These relate to minor and technical amendments. The lead amendment is amendment 30, and I call on the Minister for Education to speak to the lead amendment and the other amendments in the group.

(Translated)

Amendment 30 (Kirsty Williams) moved.

Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. Amendments 30 and 32 are minor and technical changes to update the Bill. I have introduced amendment 33 to amend section 68 of the Bill. As drafted, the Bill does not allow regulations to modify the Bill's provisions when applying them to detained children and young persons. Given their circumstances, some modifications could be necessary. This minor amendment will provide that appropriate flexibility. I therefore ask Members of the Senedd to accept amendments 30, 32 and 33. Thank you.

I have no speakers. I assume the Minister doesn't wish to reply to the debate. Therefore, the question is that amendment 30 be agreed. Does any Member object? [Objection.] Yes, there is an objection, and I therefore call for a vote on amendment 30. Open the vote. In favour 48, four abstentions and one against, and therefore amendment 30 is agreed.
