I thank Mr. Crofton. We will now open the discussion to members of the committee for questions. The format is that each member will ask just three questions initially so no one can monopolise the proceedings. If members wish to ask further questions, they will be free to do so later. We usually ask a pointed question and get a response straight away. We are not to make speeches. We will keep that for the Dáil Chamber. Deputy Collins indicated first and he has three questions.
