I thank the witnesses. I compliment Ms Orlaith O'Sullivan, Ms Sara Phillips and Mr. Ben Power for their work and, in particular, Mr. Odhrán Allen from GLEN who has been a strong champion. I thank them for attending the meeting and wish them continued success, not just in bringing about change but in creating it, their role in advocacy and helping people who are on this extraordinary journey.

I remind members that the Select Committee on Health and Children will meet next week to discuss Estimates. They will get notification of that in due course. Next Thursday we will have a meeting with the Ombudsman for Children, Ms Emily Logan.
