Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

The Deputy will have received a letter from the Minister for Social Protection on 11 July from which he is quoting. I am sorry if I was incorrect in the information I gave him about the legislation. I note in the Minister's letter to the Deputy that she says the changes will be provided for in secondary legislation and that the drafting of the regulations is well advanced. I offer my apologies to the Deputy in that regard.
