There was extensive debate on this particular issue when the Bill came before us in the Seanad before it went to the Dáil. There were discussions with the Minister in the Chamber. She asked for our trust that she would deal with the issue. An independent body was established to consider it. She acknowledged the seriousness of the issue and I commend her on that and on introducing these amendments.
