I do not agree with the Minister of State at all but we will return to this on Report Stage. It is a question of judgment and when one thinks it should end. The Minister of State referred to the inconvenience of Christmas and the pressure it will put on the agents. It is criminal activity that is taking place and it needs to be clamped down upon. There is no reason for us to allow this activity to continue or for a voluntary disclosure regime. I will withdraw the amendment but we will return to the matter it on Report Stage.
