I have a quick point to make. Unfortunately, I had to leave. However, I was horrified last night to read the opening statements and to hear them being articulated again this morning at the committee. I do not have questions, but I just want to commend Ms Galligan and Ms West. It is the type of steely approach to do the right thing, stand by one's convictions and do what one believes is right and what has transpired to be right that the country needs. I salute the delegates as public servants and thank them for the work they have done. I concur with the Chairman that we will, as Oireachtas Members and as members the Joint Committee on Justice and Equality, play our role in supporting them, if need be. I say "Well done" to the delegates for their contributions.
