I believe more could have been done in Doha. However, I accept that the Minister fought a good fight then and that as much as could have been done in the circumstances was done. I believe publication of the heads of the Bill as set out in the roadmap will be achieved next Tuesday, although we would all have welcomed if this had been done earlier in the year. We will begin the process of discussion on that Bill early in the new year. I appreciate the attendance at this committee of the Minister and his Ministers of State on three or four occasions in recent weeks.
