I thank Mr. Moloney for his engagement with the committee. I have a final comment. A year ago or so ago, before Mr. Moloney joined the board, we had hearings on the proposed sale of Coillte's harvesting rights. Nobody wanted Coillte sold, but everybody wanted it changed. There is a challenge there and from what I know of Mr. Moloney, he is the right man to oversee that challenge.

I propose that we inform the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine that we have concluded our discussion with the chairman designate and forward a copy of the transcript of this meeting to him for information. Is that agreed? Agreed.

We will suspend briefly to allow the next set of witnesses to take their seats.
