I thank the officials for coming in today. As anticipated, one issue dominated the meeting. I thank them for engaging with us so comprehensively. We hope that in the context of commonage, they will take on board the fact that members of this committee have a fairly in-depth understanding of the situation on the ground.

We will keep an eye on the progress with regard to the Commission proposal on organic farming. It is the only proposal that we decided warranted further scrutiny by this committee. We are grateful that the officials came before us and highlighted the issues of concern in such a detailed manner and we are in agreement with them on the matter.

As there is no further business, the meeting is now adjourned.
