I am sorry that nobody has come back to Deputy Ó Snodaigh on his proposal because we discussed it when we were looking at the amendments this morning. In the first instance, this relates to legislation which should be dealt with by the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation. However, there is merit in this amendment because the Department has done something similar in respect of accidents. I do not propose to accept the Deputy's amendment but I will ask my officials to write to the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation asking him to consider it and for his views on the proposal.
