Deputy O'Callaghan is correct. The Deputy may be aware that the emergency period is defined in this section as ending on 31 May. If there is no need to extend the emergency period beyond then, the Government will not do so. I call on the Deputy to consider that in deciding whether to put forward the amendment.
