On the same issue, the Taoiseach stated yesterday the Bill would be recommitted, which seems to be in error. I endorse Deputy Rabbitte's request for clarity on what is proposed by the Government because there is total confusion about how the Bill will be handled. The original Bill comprised 36 sections but 255 pages of amendments have been circulated.
