Yes. That, plus the information Mr. Moran has given us today, will very much help our deliberations and our guidance. I am struck by the fact that there was a lot of fallout from a good thing. Civil partnership and marriage equality are good, forward-thinking things. My party colleague Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh is bringing forward legislation to disregard criminal convictions that predate the legislation. As with all legislation, there will always be some kind of fallout. I will hold my questions and allow Senator Andrews in.
