It would be great for the committee if we could start to read some of the submissions online ourselves. Other consultation material tends to be published. I certainly ask that it be done sooner rather than later.

Deputy Rock was told the date could be the end of this year but would more likely be early 2020. A formal recommendation would be made on whether to go with what is proposed, and on how to go about it if it is to proceed.

On the timeline, and with the legislation before the Dáil deemed not read for a Second Time until three months after the date in question — I believe it was in October but I just cannot remember which day — will we be ready for action?
