I welcome Ms Byrne and her colleague, Mr. Ted O'Sullivan. I thank them for a comprehensive submission and for the helpful supplementary information that was supplied. As Ms Byrne mentioned, the joint committee has gone into some detail on the term limits but I wish to tease out her views in this regard. She has suggested the limit should be 12 rather than nine years. Does she believe there should be any limit or is her point that in the event of there being a limit, it should be 12 years?
