I will withdraw the amendment with the option of re-introducing it on Report Stage, which probably will be after the publication of the work being done by the ESRI and the Department. I acknowledge it has been a step forward. I do not think it would have happened if it was not for myself and others continuing to put this on the political agenda. Hopefully there will be comprehensive data we can look at to ascertain if this is a potential source of income that is socially just and should be explored.
