I thank Ms O'Brien. Before turning to members, I wish to say that youth organisations were invited to attend and young persons could have been the ones to deliver their presentations. The invitation was declined. Comhairle na nÓg has presented to us previously, as has the secondary schools organisation, in which case a secondary school student presented. The WorldSkills group also presented to us on youth apprenticeships. Without a shadow of a doubt, we want to hear the voices of young people and those who have experience of working with them.
