We are on the final round of questions now. I will take this last slot unless members return from the Seanad. I mentioned the Changing Places proposals earlier. We had lobby groups and others working for years to try to encourage our local authorities to develop and put a Changing Places facility in here or there. It is quite clear to me that these things must become standard. They have to become a regulation. We must set out quite clearly the certain types of buildings, locations of buildings and levels of footfall. That is how we should do it. What is the sense of how the Changing Places initiative is going at the moment? Does anyone have any information on that?
