I apologise for being late, but I had to attend another meeting. However, I have a fair idea of what is included in the presentations. I also welcome the delegates.

I wish to raise a number of issues, health and well-being being a huge one. Obesity is exerting huge pressure on people and the health service. What do the organisations think politicians should do? Do they suggest we should conduct campaigns and engage in more collaboration?

I am concerned about the level of access to third level education in Northern Ireland, as there seems to be a great imbalance in one community, although I appreciate that there are many apprenticeships available. It is a huge imbalance. Are the delegates involved in trying to get more people into third level education? The figures are startling.

I am interested in the south-west Balkans project. Will the delegates elaborate on it? I have been to Sarajevo. Has the project been of benefit?
