I thank the Minister of State for his highly positive response. In particular, as he noted himself, this Bill has profound implications for the realisation of people's basic human rights and I hope it will be possible to enact the Bill before the session ends, given there has been much talk recently on how time is being made for other Bills, such as the Climate Change Response Bill and the Local Government (Dublin Mayor and Regional Authority) Bill. Vulnerable adults have been waiting for a long time to hear from Members that realisation of their basic human rights is just as important to them as any other legislation.
