I have a third question which I will address to Jayson Montenegro. I wish to ask about his own and his family's experience. I was very moved by his statement that when he first left his youngest child was five and that he kept asking Jayson when was he was coming back; he is 17 now and he has not stopped asking. The Dáil is currently debating the Children and Family Relationships Bill. There must have been a significant negative impact on Jayson, on his family and on his extended family.
