We have just voted on the question that the draft report be agreed to. We said in that vote that we would not look at the draft again. It has already been voted down by the committee. However, I must come back to Senator McDowell's point that the Bill proposed by Deputy Bríd Smith is still before the committee. It is up to the committee to decide how it would like to proceed in this regard. The draft report fell here, but the Bill is still with the committee. I am afraid that is the procedure. I did not make up the rules; that is just the procedure.
