I am getting a little hard of hearing, so I wish those who wish to interrupt - something I always welcome - would take note of my hard-of-hearing status at the moment and shout out the interruptions. I would be grateful for that. I always enjoy them. Perhaps I can come back to that. That is all I wanted to say. I am interested to know whether this is one of the areas in which the Bar Council exerted pressure on the Government to alter the Bill. Can the Minister give me a reading on this?I do not normally wait but I will on this occasion because I am going to ask a question, if that is all right with the Cathaoirleach.
