Ms Éimear Fisher:

I realise the Deputy is aware of this but following this process we will be raising these points with the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel and also with the Attorney General. We have had discussions with the various legal advisers along the way and we will continue to have them. Before a Bill is tabled, it is checked for constitutionality but, of course, those questions can arise again. We will have particular regard for that, especially in light of the questions raised by the Deputy.
