I have two amendments, Nos. 8 and 21. I apologise if they have been addressed already. I was not here earlier. The intention was to have Dáil oversight, not to delay the passage of this Bill. There may be unforeseen circumstances and I understand that the Minister has already addressed this so I will not delay. There are a series of amendments which relate mostly to ensuring that at every stage of dealing with the consequences of Brexit, if it happens in the way that this Bill in some ways expects it to, the Houses of the Oireachtas will have some type of oversight of it. It is not intended to contradict the Bill. Based on what I have heard from the Minister, I will not press these amendments.
