——comprehensive Bill and the House has spent quite a few days considering it. All sides have engaged strongly in the debate during which many amendments were tabled. I wish to compliment the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, and the Minister of State, Deputy Seán Power. The Minister of State took Committee Stage and was extremely accommodating in taking on board amendments that he felt would improve the Bill. The House should thank him for that. As a consequence, he will bring a better Bill before the Dáil. Hopefully, it will receive as constructive a passage there as it did in this House.
