I welcome the deputy commissioner and all of her team. I thank her for her presentation.

The deputy commissioner has raised some very fundamental points about this proposed legislation. I think that we all have the same aim of ensuring that we have a robust piece of legislation that is clearly enforceable. The deputy commissioner has raised a lot of questions and I will turn some of them back on her in order to find solutions to some of the problems that she has raised.

What engagement has An Garda Síochána had with the Department of Health and its legal advisers on some of the main provisions of this legislation?
