I thank Deputy Quinlivan. My apologies, I was not trying to frustrate you on that. The amendment seems to allow the democratically elected mayor, to whom responsibilities are devolved, to devolve them back again to the chief executive, from whom they were taken in the first place. That is very interesting.
