I would like some clarification. When we met the officials the other day - I thank them for all the work they have done, in particular Geraldine Luddy and Dilly O'Brien - they clearly said that there was no outstanding issue or impediment to this Bill going to the Dáil. The Minister's Department has no issue nor does any other Department, so when we accept these amendments, there is no reason the Bill should be in any way slowed down or impeded from going through the Dáil relatively quickly. We could have it in place by the summer. I would like to get that reassurance from the Minister.
