I apologise that I was not present earlier but I was obliged to be in the Dáil for Priority Questions. The recommendations cannot be left on the shelf and we must ensure that they are debated. Hopefully, they will be accepted by the Government. On the question of the forum that might be used in that regard, I would hope that we might have a debate in the House. That would give all Deputies, but particularly those who represent rural constituencies, the opportunity to contribute. If we could initiate proceedings in this regard as soon as possible, it would be a start.
