I thank the Minister. All Deputies received a letter from the collaborative forum where they outlined their frustration and anger at the fact they were not consulted and were directed to Twitter to get some understanding of what was happening on this legislation. They have asked for the forum to be reconvened and listed recommendations they would like the Minister to consider. Will the Minister consider reconvening the forum? It is important to do it at this time if he is trying to rebuild trust. That was an important group for the Department to engage with on this matter.
