I welcome it. The Minister gave a new figure of 380, which relates to people aged between 18 to 24 who will benefit from what she is bringing forward in this Bill. It is unfortunate that the report has not been produced. Where is the problem or the delay? Last year, she said it was there. Whether she been misinformed by officials in the Department or not, it is disappointing. What is being proposed is a welcome small step forward.
