That concludes our deliberation of the Bill. Before we conclude our business for the evening, I welcome a new member of staff on the team. Ms Rachael Benéid joins Alan, Sarah and Eimear and I welcome Rachael. Our team do excellent work and are a very valuable part of the committee. They enable us to perform these tasks so efficiently. We certainly were efficient because we have considered 31 sections in less than 30 minutes, but I think there was consensus. It was a good exercise. I note everybody was happy with the progress made.

That concludes our business for the evening. I note the Minister of State and Deputy Daly have flagged that there may be amendments on Report Stage but that is another day's work.

The select committee adjourned at 6.48 p.m. sine die.
