The use of "shall" would possibly formalise a process of consultation between the health service and the Garda and would formalise it legally. It would also empower the Minister to consult with others, as appropriate. It is only technical wording, but I believe it would uphold the process of consultation with the same people with whom we want to progress this important legislation. It would help from a health aspect to formalise it. I realise it is a minor technical point, but I believe it is worthy of consideration in the context of the Bill.
