I appreciate what the Deputies are saying. The public consultation is captured in this. When we are talking about codes of practice, we are talking about the technicalities of implementing a new procedure, and the development and roll-out of body-worn cameras. Any person who has an interest in this will be following the development of this legislation. Once this is enacted, the next steps will be for the Garda Commissioner to work through the codes of practice to put this online so there will be an opportunity for people to have their say. As I have said, I am very happy to engage further with colleagues on how we roll out this information and how we ensure that the contents of this legislation are known to everybody. I will endeavour to engage with colleagues on this prior to the Bill going back to the Seanad.
