The committee is meeting to consider the Civil Registration Bill 2003. The Minister for Social and Family Affairs, Deputy Coughlan, and her officials will attend. I remind committee members and officials to ensure that mobile phones are switched off. We will consider this Bill until about 6.30 p.m. If we have not concluded by then, a further meeting will have to be arranged. Is it agreed that we meet until about 6.30 p.m.? Agreed.
In that context, I have been advised that because there are amendments in my name I must step down from the Chair.
