I very much accept what the Minister is saying. It is an exceptionally complex area to legislate for. In preparing the Report Stage amendment, can the Minister indicate if it will deal with the specific area of screening or is it a wider issue? In terms of trying to be specific about shortcomings in screening programmes, it is hard to do that. There are many implications then for the viability of screening programmes. Is that what the Minister has in mind, that he intends to legislative specifically for screening programmes?
