Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

I will but I want to clarify whether the Minister is prepared to consider this related group of amendments which are highly contradictory and in contention with each other. Why is there a provision on false statements when we already have the provision in section 221? This is like religious zealotry; it goes too far, is too complicated and will end up being able to do nothing to address this very important area.
