We should broaden this out to include housing policy and law because it fits and there is some good overlap. Michelle Norris is with the Housing Finance Agency and is one of the country's leading policy experts with a good read on best practice in other parts of the world. She would contribute well. FEANTSA is a network of European housing and homeless charities. There is a FEANTSA Ireland person who could give the committee the broader legal and policy experience. Simon Brooke is a visiting professor of Trinity College Dublin. He works for Clúid but I suggest we invite him in with his TCD hat on. He has huge experience of housing and homelessness in Britain and Ireland in the legal and policy areas. I suggest those speakers and agree with Deputy Ruth Coppinger's suggestions.
