I, too, express my appreciation to the Minister of State. The omission of the words "mental capacity" would have been a great error. What is particularly attractive is that it is not limited to any application appeal, review or the giving of consent. I appreciate the Minister of State listened to the Seanad on this matter. Senator Norris must be given credit for his argument for this provision. It is a reminder what the Seanad can achieve in its debate due to its less contentious nature.
