As Deputy O'Sullivan says it has been raised in the Seanad and on Committee Stage. I am aware of the eminence of her legal adviser, however, my legal adviser is not short of eminence either. The Attorney General has said it is the practice in Irish parliamentary drafting to use the word, "signed" rather than "done". I am afraid I will not accept the amendment.
