Sorry Chair, but I had indicated as well. As Deputies Rice and McGuinness have articulated the points I was going to make, I wish to be associated with the proposal regarding the relevant committees. There is a concern that there is a change in approach by the European Commission in respect of reporting and the implications that has for human rights and sustainability and for environmental reasons. Therefore, I echo the point made by the two Deputies about ensuring that the relevant line committee examines the proposals further. There are no subsidiarity concerns as such but there is a concerns in terms of the substance. I would appreciate if the Chair could record that point.
