This relates to research and not to use. The specific sections the Chairman has mentioned state that if there is a research institute, that research institute would look into both the medicinal and recreational use and would look at research being done in both of those areas in other countries. It is important to say that. We could have a debate on Committee Stage as to whether the research institute should look into recreational use at all. Certainly, there will be debate outside. Professor Finn might have an opinion on that.
