We are the elected people, although I was appointed, but for many years I was an elected Member.

As Senator Higgins said, the Minister of State, Deputy Parlon, is sent out to do the batting. That is what Ministers are for and there is no doubt he is amiable and astute, but he has been told that he cannot accept this amendment. I know well how the Civil Service works. I know what they say when they send a Minister out with a brief. They say that a Minister cannot accept this or that and must accept something else, but I would say I was accepting it.
