My point is whether it should be in the Bill or not because I have been raising this in Cork City Council for a number of years and I have been getting nowhere. What rights do individuals have to make these decisions for people? As far as I am concerned they do not have the right to do it and they should have been taken to task for it. I was listening to some of the earlier contributions when recourse to action was mentioned. Can we get these people to cease and desist? Is there something in place for that in this Bill and if there is not, should a section be put into this Bill to protect people and places from this happening?
