I thank the Taoiseach. We are out of time as a consequence of those who went over time. I am going to go to Deputies Heneghan and Jen Cummins. I ask them to be brief, please.

I have a question for the Taoiseach that is especially personal to me as my sister and her wife are expecting their child. Real fear and frustration is being felt by the LGBTQ+ parents who are still not legally recognised as their children's parents. As it stands, the Health (Assisted Human Reproduction) Act 2024 risks leaving families behind, especially those born through surrogacy or donor conception outside Ireland. Will the Taoiseach commit to commissioning an independent equality audit of legislation, will he meet the LGBTQ+ Parenting Alliance and will he ask the Department of Health to publish a clear timeline for commencement of both existing Acts? This is not a health issue, but one of equality, dignity and legal certainty for families.

I thank the Deputy for raising this very important issue. My understanding is that the Minister, Deputy Carroll MacNeill, has met the parents' alliance. I certainly have no issue meeting them either, subject obviously to scheduling in terms of the diary. I will speak to the Minister for equality and disability, Deputy Foley, on the question of an equality audit. It is an important issue. A lot of work has been done, but I understand fully the need to bring it to a conclusion.
