No, I cannot. I do not want to do that. I am not going to dictate to the Business Committee.

It may very well result in a Friday sitting but given that it has been agreed that the Business Committee will meet, the fairest thing is to allow it to deliberate upon it. The Government will be represented by the Whip at the Business Committee. That is a reasonable way to proceed.

It is their decision to vote.

To be fair to Deputy McGrath, he ran that committee for a long time.

I jest, I jest, I jest.

I jest; I apologise.

No offence, a Cheann Comhairle. I did not mean it.

The Deputy has been very active on the Business Committee for a long time.

I said the Business Committee is due to meet. I am being respectful to the committee and I will not dictate to it. I will not pre-empt what it may do.

That is a reasonable position. If the Deputy does not accept that, that is his prerogative.

It will take a while to surpass the Deputy in that department.

I spoke on this matter in the House last week. The issues with the Bill are very clear. It is for the preservation, in the first instance, of the records and the necessity to do that before the end of this month. The bona fides of the Minister in this should not be questioned. He wants to do the right thing by those most affected as well and-----

-----this will be followed by further legislation. He is willing to engage with Members of the Opposition on the issues.

My understanding is that the review will be completed soon and that the Minister will publish it. Co-living has not developed or taken off as was originally feared. There have been a lot of planning applications passed, but as a percentage of overall development, it is very low. In my view, of course it has the potential to become glorified tenement living given the nature of some of the applications I have seen and what could transpire. I have no difficulty in waiting to see the review and for it to be published.

I will make two points. The Government did consider this issue earlier. I am desperately disappointed and sorry for all of the traders involved. At this critical time as they face into a lockdown, this is the last thing they needed. There are a number of schemes that we will activate to assist the traders and others in difficulty. Obviously, applications will need to be made. I cannot determine here what the precise amount will be.

Whatever the demand is in terms of what qualifies will be made available. Deputy Christy O'Sullivan raised with me that there has been some flooding in Bantry as well and that will need to be taken on board. There will be a further incorporeal meeting today to make sure that the measures for Cork and Bantry are included in that. The long-term plan is the OPW plan.

The timeline has been thwarted because there is a judicial review of the plan. It has planning permission. I would have thought a lot of modifications have happened. There was engagement. In my view, there were a lot of changes made. It is a good plan and it should be allowed to proceed.

I was a member of the Government that led the opening up of all the secrets to do with the industrial schools and gave the survivors of those industrial schools their voice.

I did that. As chairman of the interdepartmental committee that led-----

-----to the inquiries, I spoke to the survivors. The Deputy should speak to the survivors, who will tell her how honestly I engaged with them.
