I thank the Chairman and his committee for all its support. It has done great work and shown how a committee can add to our deliberations on planning for our health services and policy. I thank everybody, even those who often have a view contrary to my own, for their contributions. I wish them all a very good summer. I wish the same to all the people in my Department, who have worked so hard, and the HSE. There has been a real improvement in our health service, with an 18% cut in budget and a 10% loss of staff. I applaud them.
