Amendment No. 2 referred to people involved in education. I am aware that we are talking about a short-term stopgap. However, the ability of someone to cite a constitutional entitlement to have a case heard in Irish, as someone from the world of education could do, possibly goes under the radar of what we are trying to achieve today, which is to prevent the eventuality of anyone abusing any constitutional shortcoming. Will the legislation will be provided in both official languages so that no shortcomings will arise, either by omission or commission?
