The debate in the Dáil on the Bill brought forward by Fianna Fáil was useful and I welcomed it. We did not oppose it because, strictly speaking, it does talk about setting up an office to regulate this. We have gone way beyond that in providing for a regulatory authority, which is a totally different kettle of fish. I do regret that it has taken this length of time. I would have liked this to have been done far more quickly but it does take time. It is frustrating but that is where we are.
