If we had to go into private session I would have had to ask all our visitors to leave and that is an unnecessary exercise so I have taken the Chair's prerogative and said we have made this decision. I thank Mr. Martin and Ms O'Keeffe. I invite Mr. Tyndall and his colleagues to join us for a very brief interaction. We are talking about a maximum of 15 minutes. Is that agreed by members? Agreed.

I have welcomed everybody in the Visitors Gallery. It has come to my attention that a woman called Lyndsey is present. On behalf of the committee I extend a very warm welcome to her. We are delighted that she is here with us. People will understand that she has a very personal interest in everything we are addressing. We wish her well. We wish all the women well.

Does Deputy Clare Daly wish to speak?
