I do not have any questions but some of the comments made have raised questions with me, which I have sent on to the committee, in regard to the other experts we need to hear from arising from this discussion. For example, we probably need to hear from someone who knows the German system, and we have heard about the Australian system but we probably need to hear from someone with direct experience of it. With regard to Professor Hegarty's contribution, the issue of demographics was discussed at other meetings but it is a huge issue that merits further discussion. I thank all of the witnesses for their contributions.
