I thank all the Senators who contributed to the debate. When it comes to getting things done, as the Leader pointed out, it is amazing what can be done when no one wants to claim the credit. In this particular instance, I again pay tribute to Senator Chambers, the large team working with her, the Minister and her staff. It takes a lot to get legislation passed. The Seanad outweighs the Dáil in getting legislation by Members passed. Nonetheless, it is a monumental achievement in itself to get this Bill done. Each Seanad has passed pretty much one Private Members' Bill. I again congratulate Senator Chambers on that achievement, which took relentless persistence. I thank the Minister for attending to conclude the debate and colleagues for their contributions.
