To clarify, human rights issues have always been at the top of the committee's agenda. We have met human rights lobbyists, various NGOs and so on, both formally and informally. We have not neglected our remit in this regard. In fact, we have been very active in lobbying the Minister on various human rights issues. It is important to make that clear.
