All these amendments follow on in a similar vein. It is part of the difficulty when amendments are grouped and we are limited to just discussing those in the group. This group, though, is very much linked to the previous group, namely, amendments Nos. 182 to 188, inclusive.

Regarding the proposed guidelines, because this topic has come up a good bit in recent meetings, I request that we be able to have a look at those guidelines before Report Stage, if that is possible. It would mean that we could know exactly what is in them and, as the Minister said, perhaps some of our concerns might be addressed in them. It would be useful and helpful to us if we could be provided with a copy of those proposed guidelines before Report Stage.
