I am about to conclude. If the Minister, who comes from rural Ireland and represents a constituency where there would be quite a diversity of opinion, does not take action who will? I encourage the Minister and others looking at this issue not to fear negative media portrayal because they might begin a process of asking harder questions as we do have a problem where the Mick Wallaces of this world can propose unconstitutional legislation and escape any kind of significant critique while others fear to speak their opinions even in these Houses because of the construction that would be placed on their remarks. I ask the Minister to consider that issue and I look forward to further dialogue with him on it.
