Section 6 is one of the sections that I propose to be deleted. My opening statement applies to this. I note that amendment No. 7 refers to the wrong Minister. The reference should be to the Minister for Education and Skills. I may, but only if we are able to achieve consensus and not otherwise, look at this section again on Report Stage. I have indicated to the deaf community representatives that I am willing to look at what we can include in the Bill on education issues and talk to my colleague, the Minister for Education and Skills, Deputy Richard Bruton, if that helps in achieving a broad consensus on how we move forward.
