I felt very insulted by the Minister's comments when she insinuated that the Bill was too complex and complicated and that she would explain it to us. I want to assure her that everybody in this Seanad has gone through this legislation line by line and that is why there are so many amendments. We do understand it. It is not too complicated for us. What is complicated to understand is why it is before this House in its current form. I felt insulted and that it was a very patronising comment on the Minister's part.
