I believe that we do. It must go through the various Stages, including in the Seanad, but this piece we are doing here now with the pre-legislative scrutiny is important. Generally there is broad acceptance of the Bill and that it will have broad support. I am certainly open to the committee members' views on how we can be sure the legislation will do the job as effectively as it should. That being the case I do not expect this to be bogged down in the Dáil or the Seanad for hours on end with significant debate. I want to make sure it is as acceptable to people as possible. That being the case in the Seanad and the Dáil we should be able to move it through pretty promptly. Committee Stage will be done at the committee.
