It would have been better to have had it for this meeting. We will meet in private session later but given that a number of organisations have raised practical concerns about enforcement, it would have been better to have the Garda submission. When we receive it we will have to give it its due attention. In the list of submissions, the one received from the Pro-Life Campaign is currently unavailable because it is with the Office of Parliamentary Legal Advisers, OPLA, for clearance. I assume there are legal issues with it. Was there a concern that the submission was defamatory? Is that why it was sent to the OPLA?
