I thank Ms Catherine Keena and Mr. Pat Murphy for their presentations. If this committee does nothing else, it has facilitated a public consultation process. To date, we have drawn in stakeholders who have all made a lot of sense. We urge those who are examining the draft proposals to consider our meetings to see if they can garner some wisdom from them. It is common sense for commonages, which could perhaps be adopted as a new slogan.
We will now suspend the meeting to allow the witnesses to withdraw and allow representatives of the National Association of Regional Game Councils to take their seats. I thank the Teagasc representatives again for having attended the committee meeting.
