Mr. John Hennessy:

I do not think the gates are closed. In fact, they are open and opening even further. I will explain the reason. A number of very important points were raised in the contributions, on which I would like to comment. I know Ms Queally and Dr. Shannon wish to comment also.

On the question of performance indicators, particularly on the issue of school health, we have acknowledged that the need for data is a significant issue. I have prioritised it for my agenda on the 2014 service plan, the preparations for which are under way.
