In addition to what the Minister of State has mentioned, the Joint Committee on Justice and Equality held a considerable number of hearings and produced a report. Indeed, it was the last report presented in advance of the final passage of the Irish Sign Language Bill which recognised Irish Sign Language as an official language of this State. We are very proud of that work.
