I will clarify that. In regard to amendment No. 19, I said that as previously stated, the composition of the forum, as well as its role and functions, were devised in consultation with the outgoing docklands council, the authority and Dublin City Council. Therefore, there was consultation in regard to it. Also, in devising the composition, role and functions of the new forum, the consensus of the outgoing docklands council, the board of the authority and of Dublin City Council was sought. The definition, composition, role and functions of the forum are detailed in Part V of the Bill. Therefore, there was engagement with the outgoing council, authority and city council. I hope this clarifies the situation for the Deputy.
