I thank both the Minister of State and the team in the Irish Deaf Society. One thing that is clear is that the Bill will pass because of teamwork from the Irish Deaf Society and all the Senators. I congratulate all. It is a good news day for the Irish Deaf Society. I know from my communication with my own colleagues in Limerick, who were very vocal in putting forward their view, that it was down to everyone working together. That is something we need to look for in the future when delivering Bills of this importance. I wish the Bill safe passage through the Dáil.
