That is not agreed. I think the debate today will be efficient. We have had lengthy discussion on it. I think that amendments Nos. 1, 2, 8 and 9 should be taken separately for policy reasons. They have a slightly different remit. There is also the pragmatic reason, that I know that a number of the Senators proposing them are on their way to the Chamber. The other factor is that amendment No. 1 relates to those rights of way previously acquired by prescription. Amendment No. 1 is seeking to avoid what has been described as the cliff-edge effect of rights of way being lost. Amendments Nos. 8 and 9 are more related to the role that the Act of 1832 might or should have in future. I would appreciate if we might separate these amendments or move them separately. Perhaps amendments Nos. 1 and 2, which is technical, could be taken together, but amendments Nos. 8 and 9 might be taken separately.
