To conclude, it will be costly and unpredictable, it will result in a loss of sovereignty, it will be difficult and complex to introduce and, ultimately, it will put a huge hole in the Exchequer finances if it is implemented in anything like the way that is suggested.

On that basis, if no other members are offering to come in again, I thank Ms Cora O'Brien, Mr. Aidan Lucey and Mr. Seamus Coffey for their opening statements, their contributions and their interaction with all of the members this afternoon.
