I thank the Deputy for raising this. I also thank him for his ongoing work over a sustained period of time on this important issue. In the first instance, my Department is liaising with the Departments of Health and Justice to prepare a number of options. The Minister for Health has confirmed today that he is also engaging with the Attorney General on the publication of the report in the Department of Health. The three coalition leaders intend to discuss the matter at our next meeting. I am certainly very happy to ensure that there is high-level government engagement with that group and I will be in touch with the Deputy to arrange it.
