Members have made a number of proposals, including contacting Mr. Peter Sutherland, the United Nations special representative for migration. We will invite Mr. Sutherland to appear before us. Deputy Crowe suggested we contact the ambassadors of Italy, Spain and Greece. Perhaps we could also invite the Moroccan ambassador. We will see what can be done in this regard. We should also contact the European External Action Service and High Representative. We will try to have one or two comprehensive meetings on migration as it is an urgent issue. We will also contact the Latvian Presidency. If members have other suggestions, they should present them to the secretariat.
