I ask the Minister to clarify how that will happen. This information will be life-changing for the person who receives it at the age of 18 or 19. It cannot happen in a bald way. What are the arrangements for ensuring that it is dealt with sensitively?

I refer to medical information. Is the Minister making any provision for medical records or information to be made available? This is a critical issue for people who are not aware of who their genetic parents are until they are adults. What arrangements, if any, is the Minister making to ensure that information is available?
