I have to speak on other legislation before a committee. I appreciate being given time to speak. These are very important amendments which go to the core of how local charities and philanthropic bodies would be impacted by this legislation. We are on Report and Final Stages. I said we should recommit the Bill because the question before the House will be whether we pass this Bill with the restrictions that are provided for. I hear what the Minister of State said about the watershed, which relates to on-demand audiovisual and sound. Most charities do not advertise on those platforms, that is, Spotify and YouTube.
