I thank Deputies again for their engagement. My officials have taken note of the matters raised, which the Department will consider. As I have outlined, this is a technical Bill that provides for the transfer of functions from RTÉ to the National Concert Hall and provides that legislative underpinning for the transfer of the NSO and choirs from RTÉ to the concert hall. As I think I said earlier, the Bill presents a important step forward in the journey of both the orchestra and the concert hall and a critical part of the concert hall's ambitious vision for the development of symphonic music, with the restored symphony orchestra taking its place in a 21st-century concert hall. I look forward to seeing the Bill make steady progress through the next Stages.
