I take the point the Deputy has made. As he has said, all of the gambling issues in the State can be examined in an holistic way in the context of the forthcoming gambling control Bill. I remind the committee when one applies for planning permission, one has to place a notice in a local newspaper as opposed to the council's website. I know it is a different area. I take the Deputy's point. Obviously, the Minister will be reading this later. I cannot give any commitment in relation to this matter.
