I thank Members for their contributions. The Bill, if nothing else, is an interesting and absorbing study of past legislation, but it does encompass an important principle: that we establish our own statute law here.

A question was asked about the continuation of the project. We are committed to doing that but, like everything else, it must be done within the available resources. We will see how it can be done.

With regard to the Bill pertaining to the cleaning of Cork Harbour, I understand it was one of those that was lost in the conflagration of 1922.
