The conversation we have had about average usage is instructive. Amendment No. 21 is a very simple amendment to provide that the outcome of that initial review is brought back to the Oireachtas for Members to discuss it. Deputy Cowen and the Minister have made a strong case that their understanding of the proposed new section 53A will do a certain thing. There will be a review. It would be right for us to have that review come back to this committee for scrutiny before the Minister, whoever that may be at that point, proceeds. It is a pretty reasonable request.
