I will consider the issue Deputy Doherty has raised. It is a fair point. I wish to give notice that I may consider the matter for change on Report Stage because I take the point the Deputy raises. My expectation is that resources would always be made available to deal with the serious matters covered in this legislation. I wish to reassure myself, however, that what we are doing here is legislatively consistent with other legislation in this area and to consult my Department as to why it is necessary to make this provision in law. While I anticipate I will get a good answer, I will give proper consideration to the matter.
