I will be brief. First, I hear what the Minister of State is saying. I acknowledge that he is doing his best to meet these concerns. I put on record that this is a good move overall. It is important that in most cases we will find out who the companies are. That was a flaw in the original Act of 2015. Sinn Féin is supportive of the legislation but we have one concern, which is why I will press a little further. The concern is the idea that a worker's name could be published by the WRC against his or her wishes. That is my concern but I acknowledge the points the Minister of State has made in that regard.
