The Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade has also raised it. We have not raised it in isolation. Our European counterparts have raised the issue as well and it has been raised at European Council level. I will continue to raise the Deputy's concerns. On her other concerns, I will refer back to the Deputy after my visit to the headquarters of Operation Sophia and give her a full update. I have no issue with returning to the committee after that. If the Deputy wishes to talk to me privately afterwards about some of the concerns she wants me to raise with the head of the mission, I have no issue with doing that for her.
