I thank the Minister for his response. What discussions has the Minister or his Department had with those who have concerns about the roll-out of this system and the fact that random address postcodes will be generated? The fire and emergency services association has raised genuine concerns that fatalities may occur due to an erroneous system being set up. What measures have been taken by the Department to enter into an ongoing dialogue with all those who have reservations about the proposed system? Will the amount of money to be spent on consultants' fees be capped? That is a huge bone of contention of which, no doubt, the Minister is aware. The public is genuinely concerned about this matter.
