Charles Flanagan (Laois-Offaly, Fine Gael)

The Minister has explained the circumstances well. I am not sure there is anything I can add, except to seek further clarity. The Minister makes an important point, particularly in the context of experienced persons or wise counsel, and particularly those who have served or are currently serving on the tribunal. I welcome the amendment. While I am not sure how many persons will be affected, I agree with the principle.
