I presume all of the witnesses have professional bodies which have a central agency or organisation in Europe. I know this is correct. I am not asking the question because I know it is true. Could the witnesses use the strength of their professional bodies at European level to bypass some of the obstacles we have spoken about? With regard to constant assessing, I would have presumed Ireland could refer the results of our assessments to our European colleagues and let us have one assessment. We do not have to reassess again and again and go through the same process all over again.
