Cuirim fáílte roimh an Aire agus roimh an leasú seo. I welcome what is a very good amendment to the Bill. As the Minister has indicated, it may be useful to look at other areas of legislation in the context of the difficulty for young people under 18 years of age in testifying comfortably. It may be that this method of taking their evidence initially and using it later in court should be considered more broadly. It is a progressive measure which enhances the Bill. Sinn Féin welcomes the Bill in a general sense.
