The purpose of this meeting is to give stakeholders in the industry an opportunity in a public forum to give their position and observations on what they see as being the good, the bad and whatever else in between. Their views will be taken on board by the committee. While it will be a Government decision ultimately, this meeting affords the stakeholders an opportunity to articulate their views in a public forum and it also affords the members the opportunity to give their opinions and ask questions. I call Deputy Ó Cuív.
