I will start with Dr. Carpenter, who spoke about the need for action by the Government on privacy. One issue on which the Government is acting is gambling. I asked representatives from the sports organisations who were before the committee about the statement by the Irish Bookmakers Association that the gambling Bill will stop live Premier League games being shown by Sky in Ireland. Does Dr. Carpenter believe this to be the case or is it kite flying by the bookies?
