I thank members for their support. We need to keep talking about this issue but we also need action. As far as I know, we are waiting for a money message, which means it is down to the Government to provide. I hope it does not delay on that. Unfortunately, as Deputy Pearse Doherty said to me yesterday, there are 27 Opposition Bills sitting there at the moment, waiting for a money message. The Bill was frozen for nine months after it passed Second Stage.

I thank everyone for their comments. Hopefully we can progress the Bill.
