I will talk in the round. I agree with Senator McDowell. He mentioned the report Regulating Gaming in Ireland, published in 2006. Its authors outlined their concerns about private clubs. He mentioned his own amendments. It is time that we regulated the private clubs. When the Minister of State set out with this legislation, he was attempting to do so, but there is still an anomaly with private clubs, their membership and what people can do when they sign up as members. I would welcome the Minister of State's response-----
