There is one other matter, which concerns Deputy Higgins's comments on how this information is fed upwards through the process by the witnesses. If needs be, if the witnesses wish to revert to me for further emphasis on the points made by members today, I certainly will accommodate this. In addition, the transcript and recordings of today's proceedings will also be available. I will be more than grateful, that is, almost insistent, that this will happen. I note Mr. O'Sullivan has acknowledged in his own comments that he will be taking away those points as well.

Finally, I propose to the joint committee that the multi-annual financial framework, MFF, might be a subject to which members might wish to revert for scrutiny after agreement but before the legislation goes through. Is it agreeable to members that we can revisit the issue again during that window? Agreed.

I apologise for using an incorrect name earlier and thank Mr. O'Sullivan, Ms Campbell, Mr. Landers, Mr. Deane, Mr. Kelly and Ms Cannon for their attendance.
