We had groups here last week, including business associations and the hotel groups, and I want to recognise the demand from those different groups for reform in this area. The Minister for Justice, Deputy Helen McEntee, has also made public comments about it. It remains to be seen what comes before the Houses. I agree with Mr. Fitzgerald that for this to work we need to bring everyone around the table. We cannot delay this forever. Ireland does not enjoy nearly the flexibility that exists in other European cities. There is certainly a demand from young people for real change in this area.
