Yes. I apologise for being unable to attend. I do not understand its concerns or why it does not approve of presumed consent. It seems that everyone else is in favour. I urge that we reintroduce my legislation or a Government Bill. With the committee, I visited the Minister for Health, Deputy Reilly, from whom there was no strong opposition. He seemed to be in favour of presumed consent as well, assuming precautions were taken. We can push on that open door. I hope that we do.
