I remind Members and witnesses to ensure that their mobile phones are completely turned off for the duration of the meeting. Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan is substituting for Deputy Pringle, and Deputy Aylward is substituting for Deputy McConalogue.

This meeting has been convened for the purpose of the consideration of the Greyhound Racing Bill 2018. I welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Deputy Doyle, and his officials. I propose that we get through the legislation as quickly as possible. A grouping list has been circulated for the information of Members. Does every Member have a copy?
