I am conscious of time. It was agreed in private session that we did not need to put a five-minute time limit on questions and answers as we usually do, but Deputy Barry has had 16 minutes and we are averaging around 12 minutes per person, which means we will eat into the second session of today's meeting. I ask members to ask questions which have not been asked and try to keep their contributions brief. I will have to move on from Deputy Barry as there are other speakers, three members of the committee and three non-members who wish to come in. I have included Senator Colette Kelleher as a member as she is substituting for Senator Grace O'Sullivan. Those remaining to speak are Deputy Cowen and Senators Kelleher and Boyhan, then Deputies Ellis and Ó Cuív and Senator Warfield. I ask members to bear in mind that we will eat into the second session if they do not keep contributions brief.
