I thank the Cathaoirleach. The Irish Kidney Association has described the Minister's signing of this European Union directive directly into Irish law without scrutiny as the worst implementation of this directive by any European Union member state. Last year, as the Leader is aware, I tried to have the Seanad recalled on this issue and was blocked unlawfully by the Government. If it tries to do that again this year, I will go to the High Court to seek a court order to ensure this directive is scrutinised before the deadline for its scrutiny expires on 28 August.
