I beg to move amendment 18, in clause 18, page 10, line 34, at end insert—

“(f) advertising it.”

This amendment allows the enforcement authority to prevent an individual who has been served a safety note from advertising their product.

This is exactly the point that I just made, so I will not labour it.

My explanation covered both points. Clause 18 provides an enforcement authority with the power to serve a safety notice on a person where doing so is considered necessary to restrict the availability of a medical device in order to protect health and safety. It provides the enforcement authority with discretion about the prohibitions that may be imposed. The amendment seeks to add a specific prohibition on advertising a medical device. We recognise that the purpose behind it is to equip the enforcement agency. I would like to reassure hon. Members that that sits in the Bill. On that basis, I commend the clause to the Committee.

I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.

Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.

Clause 18 ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Clauses 19 to 23 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
