I wish to speak to amendment No. 5 in my name. In that context, I will take up from where Deputy Catherine Murphy left off. This legislation is flawed and contains a number of major holes. The Government is rushing the process relating to the Bill, which will be put through the House by the end of the week. We are revisiting this matter because 12 months ago Deputies Timmins, McNamara and I were not listened to when we raised specific concerns with the then Áire Stáit, Deputy O'Dowd.
