Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)

I was going to finish rather than going back again. I have a right to reply, so I can sit down and start again.

I was about to finish by saying that it is a pity that the Minister has rejected out of hand safeguards such as these, dismissing what the Human Rights Commission had to say. I am not expert in this field since, like the Minister, I accept advice from those tasked to inform us or raise questions about legislation. That is literally what we are doing to make the best possible legislation in this House.
