Yes, it really has. Unfortunately, we are competing with both the Seanad which is discussing the Gender Recognition Bill and the Dáil and certain members were obliged to leave. It was great, however, that we were able to engage in such an informative discussion. Our guests would have tended to appear before the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform to discuss the issue of tax implications. This committee can discuss matters from a social protection point of view. I thank our guests and committee members for attending.
