The Deputy can discuss that with the Minister privately. I thank the Minister of State and the director general of Irish Aid for facilitating a visit by a committee delegation to Ghana last year. I also visited Nigeria in my capacity as Chairman to address a conference. Ambassador Fay put his best foot forward to assist committee members on both occasions. I thank him and his team in Abuja for their hospitality and for the work they do on behalf of the Government. They do a fantastic job, as do all our embassies. I am delighted Kenya has been selected as a location for an embassy. It is an important hub in west Africa and it has an embassy in Ireland. It is good that our mission in Sierra Leone has been upgraded to an embassy.
