I thank you for meeting with the committee. The discussion has been very informative. I commend your commitment to the future of the Assembly in initiating the Bill.
I also thank all the parties for the fresh start, as we might call it, and all the people involved in the deliberations. I believe it is a good step forward. The committee's duty is to monitor the implementation of the Good Friday Agreement. The important issue for us is the integrity of that Agreement, which was constructed with a very careful constitutional balance, and that it is maintained.
This has been an excellent contribution. Thank you for taking the time to attend this meeting to put your views forward with this Bill. I thank the members for their questions and the witnesses for their forthright replies. We wish you every success for the future.
We will adjourn until 17 December next.
