That is right. It relates to protection for pregnant workers. It is hoped to take Committee Stage of that Bill the week after next.
The Criminal Insanity Bill, which was raised yesterday, seems to be in a morass. There are hundreds of amendments, so the entire Bill is being looked at again. I do not know what will be the outcome.
Senator White raised the issues of Iraq and Palestine while Senator Hanafin raised the issues of rail transport and stem cell research. He pointed out that the issue of human embryos is separate and he also referred to gene therapy.
