I note that there are 200 amendments today, of which 134 are proposed by the Minister, so the thinking is obviously evolving. The submissions made to the Minister by the Employment Law Association of Ireland and Senator Craughwell, who is a trade union leader, might merit consideration at the next stage. The Minister's thinking is obviously evolving as he listens to the debates and arguments, and I pay tribute the 134 amendments he has put down today. They are a sign that this Bill has had a lot of new thinking put into it. Perhaps what my learned colleagues have said here might feature on Report Stage.
