I echo Deputy Kenny's remarks. I am interested in the area myself. Deputy Kenny makes a good case - indeed, the Minister of State has been proactive in respect of it - in terms of whether the proposed amendments encompass supermarkets and places of retail. Is this the thinking behind the amendments in terms of rebalancing liability or the presumption of liability in respect of slips, falls and those types of issues that can lead to litigation?
