I thank the Minister of State. It is reassuring to know that all countries will be working to ensure that the issues of migration and the tragedies that have occurred in recent months are to the fore at EU Council level. We welcome the reassurance in respect of Senator Terry Leyden's question on agriculture, which is hugely important to this country, and that it must be to the fore in terms of TTIP. I expect this issue of whether the UK will exit the European Union will be debated for a number of years. That issue will be to the fore of this committee's concerns and deliberations, and rightly so.
