I accept Deputy Farrell's bona fides on this and where she is coming from. In many ways, when we started with the heads of the Bill, which we published and brought to Government, we had a more prescriptive approach to some of this in terms of definitions and the like. By teasing through it - and I credit my officials for this - we ended up acknowledging that what we published was not the final product. We have made amendments between the heads of the Bill and the final piece of legislation. I think we are both coming at this from a good point of view. It is just a question of what you put in and do not put in primary legislation.
