Dr. Sparrow will note from all the contributions that we are anxious and willing to put forward to the Government and the Minister, in particular, specific proposals that she has, which could help to ease the situation. It is a huge task, unfortunately, as Deputy Barrett said, but has she specific proposals that she could outline to us which we, in turn, we could advocate to our Government and it could promote at the Council of Foreign Ministers or at the UN. We would be glad to hear specific proposals from her, if it is possible to condense them. I do not take from the gravity of the situation and the huge task that lies ahead to bring peace to the region.
