Eugene Regan (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for spending his time in the House on this Bill. I was not happy with the responses to the different amendments I had tabled, both on the rights of victims and on the double jeopardy rule, so I shall wait for the next Bill to see whether any amendment I put forward might be accepted by the Minister. None the less, I thank him for dealing with the Bill from beginning to end, and also the officials who assisted in its preparation.
