Is that agreed? Agreed. We recently had a very successful rare diseases day and we also made a recommendation that the Minister would have a national strategy, and a national centre for rare diseases, and I hope that our discussion today may create a momentum towards building progress. I thank the witnesses for their work and their presentations this morning, and I thank Deputy Dowds for proposing this meeting today.
