If the Minister of State does not accept this amendment, it will be perfectly obvious that she will not accept any amendments. The Government does not want the Bill to go back to the Dáil for this reason and, for that reason, I suggest we have a vote on the amendments and draw the matter to a conclusion. I have already given many reasons to show that one possible interpretation is that it is not necessary to have one student. That is quite clear. The English language is absolutely plain on that. That would be a legal interpretation of it. This is an unusual case but it is not impossible to comprehend.
