The Minister knows my views and all Members have articulated theirs. The Minister has engaged on a number of issues and I urge him to continue to engage in a similar constructive manner with both Deputies and Senators, because when the Minister amends the Bill in the Dáil he will return with it to the Seanad. It would be useful to continue that dialogue to ensure that when he returns, hopefully, we will have an opportunity to see if some of the measures he has promised Senators have been put in their fullest and best expression into the Bill. We will be pressing for that.

There is a great deal of hurt and disappointment with the mother and baby home commission and with some of the process.
