I thank the Minister of State. It is very good to hear about the gambling regulator and the social impact fund, which are great measures. I thank all Senators for sharing their experiences today and I particularly thank Senators Wall and Sherlock for bringing this Bill to the House. Gambling addiction is a terrible problem in Irish society and the strongest possible measures are needed to tackle it. It is important, in the context of families in financial distress, to mention the Money Advice and Budgeting Service, MABS.

I now invite Senator Wall to respond to the debate.
