Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

That is why we have agreed to recommit the Bill in respect of the amendments in order that we might discuss and scrutinise this issue. My intentions were clear. There was a mistake in drafting. It was pointed out, it is being corrected and I am answering any questions that people may have. That is the way we legislate in this House.
