Absolutely. The amendment has been tabled by the Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin parties and we ask the Minister to consider accepting it. I appreciate the need for the registration system but I ask the Minister to consider accepting the amendment and having no fee attached to that process. There might be more of a buy-in to the Bill among the public if there was no registration fee. There are obviously other costs to contend with and we have dealt with them in other sections of the Bill. The registration fee seems to be a cash cow for the Government. As everybody knows, if a fee is introduced, no matter whether it is €5 or €50, it is inevitable that it will go up. We saw that earlier this year with the plastic bag levy and the bin levy.
