I will raise that, because it is a Programme for Government commitment that has been there for a long time. I have to say, Minister, that your arrogance is unreal. Where is the LGBTQIA+ strategy? You did not mention that. Is there a reason for your not mentioning it? Can we ensure that you adhere to your ministerial responsibility to adhere to section 75 and act regardless of creed, colour or race? What is your response to that?
