Are there any further comments? No. I thank the witnesses for coming here today to engage with the committee. It was the first of four sessions on the issue that we will have between now and December and we hope to have a document produced in January. All members of the committee were very conscious of the fact that we wanted to look at this properly.

In our next session we have Chambers Ireland, the Irish Tax Institute, ISME and ICTU. After that, we will have the Convenience Stores and Newsagents Association of Ireland, RGDATA, the National Off-Licence Association, NOFFLA, the Banking and Payments Federation Ireland and Insurance Ireland and then we will have the Construction Industry Federation. We may also have the IFA. We are trying to look at it from all angles to get a good overview of it. Today's session was very worthwhile so I thank the witnesses. I appreciate their time.

We will suspend for a number of minutes until our new guests come in.
