I apologise for my late attendance. Unfortunately, I had to lead for my grouping in the Seanad on a debate. I appreciate, as do all the members, all the witnesses coming here to speak with us about this. This is an issue about which I feel very strongly, as do the Chairman and Vice Chairman, who have been lyrical and eloquent about the benefits of the community courts structure, having visited New York. We are all very excited about the prospects. We really appreciate it and thank the witnesses for their time. It is also great to see the Minister here with us.
