On the question regarding the financial implications of the Bill, neither the Minister nor the Department had any input into the original money message decision. As the committee will be aware, the Oireachtas Library and Research Servic reported to the committee on 31 October 2018 that the direct Exchequer cost would be between €8 million and €50 million. I wrote to the committee on 26 November expressing similar concerns., such that it is not three or four weeks ago that I raised this issue.
