I welcome the Minister of State and congratulate her on the work she has done on the Bill, which can be a key driver of economic and social progress. The rationale behind the Bill is to strengthen the talent pool in the regions, including Dublin, and that is to be welcomed. I also very much welcome that the Government wants to treble the number of apprenticeships available. We are looking at approximately 73 new areas. I also welcome that there will be 11 major STEM-based projects. Am I allowed to ask a question?
