I accept what the Minister is saying. What Deputy Cairns said is right. There is a need for cultural change. It has to happen at some point, and something has to start it off. I am still worried about the period in which cultural change is to take place in that adopted people could be left behind or something could happen. I do not know the solution or the best that can be achieved for anybody in this regard. As is evident from the number of amendments suggested by the bodies acting on behalf of adopted people, a big task needs to be done. It may require a leap of faith by everybody to ensure it is done. I hope it happens. The best way is to give all the information because there should not be anything hidden. That is how it should happen. We will see how it goes.
