Okay. The recommendation is that the correspondence from the petitioner be sent to the Department. We will continue with that. However, the committee is in agreement that we write to the petitioner and advise of what Senator Craughwell and Deputy O'Donoghue said, that the way to go with this, in our opinion, is through the Seanad where lobbying can be done and amendments submitted. It can then go from the Seanad to the Dáil and back to the Seanad again, and if people are not happy at that stage, we can go the way the petitioner is talking.
