The Minister of State referred to the large number of organisations which support this provision. He should ask them if they would have a problem with a review of it. No sensible person would have a problem with a review of the legislation in two years’ time. I cannot believe what is happening here. There should be a consensus of common sense that this legislation should be reviewed in two years’ time. I will withdraw the amendment for Report Stage and I hope the Minister of State will use common sense on this matter to do himself justice.
