I begin by thanking Jessica Bray, Emer Taylor, Carolyn Farrar and my Civil Engagement colleagues. I thank Colm Gannon, the Rape Crisis Network of Ireland, the Children's Rights Alliance and MECPATHS. I thank Jamie Connolly from the Bills Office. I also thank Corey O'Hara for all his hard work on these amendments.

This grouping of amendments does exactly what it says on the tin. It calls out child abuse for what it is. I hope the Minister of State will accept the amendments in this grouping. As I said, it was done in line with civil engagement organisations and individuals who have been victims of child sexual abuse material.
