Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCathaoirleach Gníomhach agus an Aire Stáit. Tá cúpla focal le rá agam faoin uair thábhachtach seo fosta. I compliment the Minister of State and his staff on their great work in bringing this legislation forward. From a Fianna Fáil perspective, we are delighted to support it. We all know the horror that is human trafficking and unfortunately I had the experience of dealing with victims of that in my own time. It is really heartbreaking. These people are very vulnerable and it happened behind closed doors. There is an onus on us all to keep our eyes and ears open to this horrible crime. This is a very welcome and positive step. From a Fianna Fáil perspective, we are delighted to see this legislation progress.
