I will give the people in the Chamber, including the very esteemed professor of law and the Minister of State, a chance to think about it further. What the heck is wrong with having a review of the legislation? Why should it be carved in stone? That is what happens with much of the legislation passed by the Oireachtas - it is carved in stone forever and nobody returns to it. I will not press the amendment but I will table it on Report Stage. Hopefully, people will use their heads and the Government will provide for a review two years hence.
