I might just ask Ms Graham to respond to the Deputy's direct questions. Essentially, the paper that the committee has received is the same paper. That was one of the Deputy's questions. We are out of time on the slot. I will give Ms Graham the opportunity to respond to the points raised by the Deputy.

I wish to make a point on timelines, as referred to by Deputy Ó Broin. The committee has dealt with really substantial, complex and difficult legislation. We have proven our ability to do that within timeframes that were challenging, and we met the deadlines. I would not be quite as pessimistic as Deputy Ó Broin to say that we do not have the capability to do that. The committee is committed to addressing that. I call Deputy Higgins.
