I hope she will be alerted to the questions I am asking about the vetting procedures in order to give an indication of the reasons behind the delay.

Does the Bill provide for the use of PPS numbers? I cannot find any reference to it in the Bill. There seems to be an absence of clarity, to use the phrase we have grown used to in the past few weeks. The practical effect and the impact of using PPS numbers is seen if someone goes on a training course. The person cannot go on the training course without Garda vetting. If the person is involved in dealing with children, the person must be vetted even though a voluntary code applies.
