I thank the Minister and his officials for their input today. We appreciate his frankness and openness to discussion. We appreciate the level of commitment he and his officials have shown in improving the level of detail and the quality and type of information he has given to us as a committee as part of the Estimates process. It is a good opportunity to allow us as members, as well as members of the public, to see the detail in the background in terms of the Estimates. We, as a committee, look forward to continuing to work with the Minister and his Department. We will have a close working relationship over the coming months. We shall go into private session shortly. We have quite a substantive work programme to agree and priority will be given to the Cassells report. I thank the Minister and his officials for their time.
