There is an issue with indemnification. There is a genuine concern pertaining to this among those in the charities sector. This arises later on in the Bill and the matter raises certain fears. Rather than prolong the debate, I encourage the Minister of State to revert to the Seanad. Some people have entered into contractual service agreements where a deficit exists and where there is a failure by the agency in question to deliver financial outcomes. We must not spoil a good Bill and we must protect those who volunteer and opt in. There was a task force to consider this matter. If we were to accept the Government line on volunteerism, it could cause difficulties. We want to encourage people to participate rather than prohibit them. Will the Minister of State reconsider the matter?
