My question is what this proposed legislation does for that. In terms of the monument not being cared for, there is a certain maintenance of it and a rather unsympathetic block of concrete underneath it that is not particularly sympathetic to the structure. My question is more about what this proposed Bill does. If we have anomalies in the context of different items of legislation governing it, is it likely to fall between two stools, namely, between the OPW and the Phoenix Park Act and the former's role in the Phoenix Park versus this proposed legislation? How do the two meet up?
