I thank the witnesses for their presentations. Coming from a party which has long-advocated the merits of a public banking system, the witnesses are pushing an open door and I want to see if we can make some progress today. Reference was made to the model being in the programme for Government. In reply to a parliamentary question last month, the Minister said a report was imminent. Are the witnesses happy that they have had sufficient input into the report?
