I thank the representatives from the Peter McVerry Trust for appearing before the committee. Their contribution is very helpful to our work. The trust's recommendations are clear and concise and do not prompt too many questions from me. However, one area of interest to me is that relating to institutional discharges and the trust's recommendation that discharging departments should take responsibility for programmes and, presumably, accommodation needs also. Are the witnesses aware of any international best practice in this area which we could seek to recommend as part of our report?
