I thank Deputy McAuliffe. Deputy Ó Broin wishes to come back in. To be helpful in terms of timelines, we have our final meeting on this on Thursday and we will be aiming for completion of our pre-legislative scrutiny report by 21 February. If Professor Crowe were to make suggestions, it would be helpful to get them a couple of days before the deadline. We would appreciate whatever he could do. I thank him for that.
