I join with other speakers in commending the Minister of State and his officials for their work on this Bill. It is an extremely important Bill and it will certainly pave the way forward. I agree with his assertion that Ireland can now lead the way in this area. The collaborative process has been very important and the Minister of State is to be commended for taking on board people's views in this House and in the Dáil. That is testament to how serious he is in his work. It is a new era for education in this sector, and the important thing is that it must be learner focused. I have every confidence that this Bill will achieve that.
