I thank Mr. Osborne for the powerful presentation. The committee was in Belfast and no doubt it will gladly accept the invitation to visit again. I am concerned that the funding is on an ad hoc basis and that it is not enough. Reconciliation is very much a part of the Good Friday Agreement and this committee certainly supports the Community Relations Council. I agree that all these things should be outcome based. It is clear from the work carried out by the council that it is very much outcome based. The committee congratulates the council on that. I will seek the approval of the committee but I suspect it would be only too delighted to be of assistance. I invite Members' questions and call Deputy Brendan Smith.
