Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I am sorry that we missed this earlier because I am favourably disposed to Deputy Shortall's suggestion. I would like to consult with the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel before tabling a suitable amendment for Seanad Éireann. I am in agreement in principle, but I must ensure that the wording is correct. In fact, Deputy Shortall's second amendment to the amendment deals with consultation with the Equality Authority and I am happy to accept that suggestion.
