So, yes it is realistic that we can get the legislation at least through this House and into the Seanad before the recess. I am mindful of the comments of others. I do not want to see the legislation rushed through. If people want to have a third debate on it and to have amendments debated that should be allowed as well, but I believe it is within the capacity of this House to meet those deadlines. I do not think anybody wants the perception created that somehow the Bill is being rushed through. It has been a year in development already so it has not been rushed this far, and lots of time is being provided on Second Stage.
