There is a difference between allowing interested parties to register for a mailing list and requiring that people are informed of by-laws in this way. Waterways Ireland may take what the Deputy is suggesting into account but it is not for primary legislation. Somebody could be missed and people may also miss emails, as we know. I am sure it is something Waterways Ireland could consider. It is not standard practice for by-laws in other areas but it is something Waterways Ireland can consider. I cannot accept the Deputy's amendment.
