He probably wanted to pinch himself. The Minister of State is welcome and I wish him well.

These are both sensible amendments and it would be extremely worthwhile if a framework were put in place in order to allow housing authorities to deal with domestic violence. It is a fact that such violence occurs, in the case of males as well as females. A framework such as that proposed should be put in place in order that victims or potential victims of domestic violence might be offered the possibility of being rehoused. I support these very worthy amendments.
