The Department should talk to people who have come through the system or people who are still in the system. It has been said here by Mr. McBride that some of these minors are well able to speak for themselves and know precisely their views. There is a deficiency in the public consultation to date which I hope will be corrected before the legislation proceeds because I would like it to be done. There will be a glaring omission if it gets to an Oireachtas committee without that having been done. I am saying this in an effort to be helpful and to get it right.
