I welcome the Minister for Justice, Deputy Fitzgerald. Before Committee Stage commences, I would like to deal with a procedural matter concerning Bills to amend the Constitution. The substance of the debate on Committee Stage concerns the wording of the proposed constitutional amendment, which is contained in the Schedule to the Bill. The sections of the Bill are merely technical, therefore in accordance with the long-standing practice, the sections are postponed until consideration of the Schedule has been completed. Is that agreed? Agreed.
