I said that I have agreed with it but once we have a satisfactory agreement with the troika it is not my normal practice to open up discussions again because one never knows where these things will meander. I will reflect on what the Deputy is saying because I think he accepts my bona fides in this matter. Therefore I volunteer to come back once the national lottery licence has been acquired. If I can reflect on the suggestions made by the opposition Deputies between now and Report Stage we can discuss it further, if they accept my bona fides.
