I thank President Lambertz. That was a good overview of the whole situation and a good way for us to wrap up this engagement. We could have gone on and interacted all evening but I know Mr. Lambertz has other commitments and meetings on his schedule. I want to help him to adhere to his timeframe. I thank the members for their engagement.
On behalf of the Vice Chairman and the members, I thank everyone for taking the time to be here this evening. I thank the officials for helping to organise this important event. I describe the work that all of us - in Ireland, other countries and everywhere - are doing as trying to prepare for what is an unprecedented situation. We will try to do the best so that we can find a political situation to the difficulties, the problems and issues that will arise over the coming weeks, months and, indeed, years for the betterment of the societies we are elected to represent.
