I thank the Minister and all of the staff in the Department for taking on board our concerns. We spoke specifically about the sections pertaining to the interests of children. This was motivated by the discussions with the special rapporteur on child protection when he came before the committee and with students who came from various primary and secondary schools to debate these points with us. I thank the Minister for taking these points on board. I note what she has said about the right to privacy already being addressed. We had a robust debate during our first encounter. Like my colleague, I am happy to withdraw the amendments.
