I, too, thank the Minister of State for bringing this Bill before the House. As I said on Second Stage I thank the officials who drafted this comprehensive Bill. It reinforces and enhances Ireland's position in regard to nuclear non-proliferation and nuclear disarmament. We are making a statement by enacting into law a Bill which legislates for issues which, as Senator Glynn has said, we hope will never have to face, namely, any nuclear explosions in the jurisdiction of this State by any person or citizen of this State. I wish the Bill well.
