What controls are being incorporated in the amendment to prevent what we have seen happen with other automated systems around the Department of Justice and Equality, for example, the fixed charge notice system? Effectively, we are legislating for an automated system around summonses. What is being done to stop other scenarios occurring that could potentially be adverse to the citizen in the context of what the Minister of State is trying to do?

I have a slight concern in this regard. If we are doing something by electronic or automated means, in a human context what is within the legislation to prevent something adverse occurring to the person who is going to receive the summons, given that it is an automated system?
