Again, it is about substance for me. I will give a commitment to look at the proposal. Senator Boyhan will make his own decision on how to proceed. My role, as a Minister of State and as a TD representing Limerick city, is to make sure this legislation works. What I put forward to the Senator is based on what I believe the situation to be. However, I give a commitment to look at his proposal. If, having gone through it further, I believe there is a need for further provision, I will bring something forward on Report Stage. I am giving a commitment to look at it, which is fair. We can agree to differ. We are looking to get to the same end but I just have a view that this is covered in the legislation. I note the Senator's bona fides and I commit to looking further at the issue.
