I listened to the Minister's response. I appreciate what the Minister stated about anonymising the audits and the difficulty in identifying slides. I wonder if there is any possibility of redesigning that system and looking at it again. I appreciate that the Minister is willing to look at another amendment. This stands out for me as well because Emma Mhic Mhathúna, who was from Leixlip and was one of the women affected by the CervicalCheck scandal, is buried in Laraghbryan graveyard in Maynooth. We lined the road when her coffin was coming out to Maynooth. I mentioned the CervicalCheck scandal on several occasions this evening, but it stands out as a turning point. We want this duty of candour. Women want to know. I am interested in seeing how the Minister will be able to look at this again. I will be following it.
