I wish to make a point on that. It is really important that both the Irish Council for Civil Liberties and the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission have supported the general scheme of the Bill. They appreciate and accept that that balance has been struck. Obviously, we do not get the import of what the Attorney General says. The advice of the Attorney General is for the Government. Is Mr. O'Connor satisfied that the legal advice that has been given to the Department, either from the Office of the Attorney General or from the Department's own legal section, would withstand any legal challenge?
