I thank Mr. Kelly for his contribution. I agree with much of what Senator Walsh had to say. Is the Department satisfied that other countries, in particular the more powerful ones with huge populations, are making a contribution equal to that being made by Ireland? I refer in this regard to countries such as the United States. Is the Department satisfied that its contribution in terms of effort is equivalent to that being made by Ireland? The witnesses might outline what oversight the Department has on the ground in the Philippines in terms of the outcome of Ireland's contribution.
