I have indicated my intention to discuss this further on Report Stage. I note the difference between "shall" and "may". It is "shall" in respect of Enterprise Ireland and the IDA. I have not sought to remove those, though that is an option that could be considered. I am not objecting to consultation with those agencies but if there was consultation with them and not others, then we have an imbalance that is inappropriate. We will try to address that on Report Stage.
