I tabled 15 amendments in respect of this Bill. I know the Minister will consider them again. There is a possibility that loopholes could leave the State open to challenge. It is drafted too broadly and I hope this can be remedied when it comes before the Dáil. It treats RCSI much more leniently than Waterford Institute of Technology or Dublin Institute of Technology, which is a pity. I wish the Minister well with it in the Dáil. I hope it comes back in an amended state, because that is why we put down the amendments. There are flaws that Senators Power and Byrne and others have drawn attention to.
