I thank the representatives of the Irish EV Owners' Association for appearing before the joint committee. The meeting has been very enlightening for members. The association laid out its wish list, which the joint committee will consider, and we will ascertain whether we can play a role in this area. Given that the proceedings will be published in the Official Report, the mere presence of the witnesses will, I hope, lead to a spike in membership of the Irish EV Owners' Association. As has been noted, the enthusiasm shown by the witnesses in pioneering and promoting electric vehicles is to be welcomed.
