I thank Mr. Honan. We are doing pre-legislative scrutiny of the National Cyber Security Bill. As Deputy Farrell outlined, it is 183 pages of a PDF and that is just the heads of the Bill, so there is a lot in it. We have all admitted that none of us are cyberexperts. I think we will be going from 70 regulated entities to approximately 4,000 but all of those 4,000 have suppliers and customers, and the Bill touches on 18 industries, so it may affect a lot more people than many appreciate or realise. I presume many cyberexperts are looking in today but many others are not cyberexperts. We know the Bill is transposing NIS 2 but, for an ordinary person, what is it really about or what is the crux of it?
