——or input into the source of that stem cell research. We should have a debate in the early autumn on this important issue. One person whose views on the matter we must hear is the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children. We now have a report from the commission. We are due a report from the Oireachtas health committee shortly. It is now time for action on this matter. There is no regulation in this very complicated area. Some parts of it can be done immediately. Others require legislation in both Houses, which can be debated at length, while some require constitutional amendment, which will warrant further debate. It is important we debate this issue in a measured and calm way.
