I understand that. It is up to us here in Dáil Eireann to change the rules. I am asking the witnesses because I have asked the Minister. I have even asked my party to make it part of the confidence and supply arrangement. I am looking for a solution for the small number of students who are excluded. I know it is unfair to ask the witnesses as they are only implementing the laws we make. I understand that. I have been told that every year. However, when I have the opportunity I ask the witnesses as well for their point of view.
