This is not an issue of trust. Nobody is saying people do not trust other people, but there is a problem with collecting data and there is a problem with the existing data. Including it in the legislation will mean that what should be done will be done. The list is by no means exhaustive. Obviously it can be added to as required. The list represents what I and others believe should be a minimum. Specifically section 2(e) proposes reviewing the recommendations of the Citizens' Assembly, which is extremely important. We should not leave it up to chance.

We support the Minister's amendment No. 11. Sinn Féin with others had called for the review period to be reduced in any event.
