The Senator's point is well made, in fairness to him. We are on Report Stage in the Seanad, however, and there is no scope for further amendment of the Bill. I reiterate my earlier point that the master of the ship has responsibility for ensuring overall safety on the ship. His obligations and legal responsibilities are enshrined in this legislation and he is the relevant person. I know what the Senator is saying but the actual obligations and rules imposed on the person responsible for safety on the ship fall to be discharged by the master of the ship.
