I echo other Members' comments. We are talking about taxpayers' money. It would be very unfair and unethical for the Minister not to accept the amendment. I again ask him to reconsider the matter on Report Stage to see what progress can be made. I ask him to seek legal advice from the Attorney General regarding the issue.

Deputy Naughten mentioned the committees. I am not a member of any committee. We are not entitled to table amendments unless we are members of a committee.
