First of all, I thank all of the witnesses for their presentations, the contents of which will make their way into our report.

One of the important themes is that material development should not be the only measure of development. We have gross national product, GNP, but sometimes I think we need gross community product, GCP, too. All of the groups here today fulfil a particular role but what is important is that they are a massive resource for further change and development within communities. We wish them luck in the roll out of human connectivity in the future.

I ask all of the group representatives and committee members to make their way to the plinth outside for a photograph.

It is interesting that we have the three different groups. We would like to get a photograph of them in front of Leinster House with the elected representatives who are present. I will ask the clerk to forward to photographs to the delegates for distribution in any way they see fit.
