I thank Dr. Brennan and all the other witnesses for attending. It has been long day for them and I apologise for keeping them so late. Today is the second day of our consultations on this matter. We have given it a good hearing, as we did the previous day. Over the coming weeks, the committee will decide on the next course of action with the Bill. As has been mentioned, there may be amendments or legal issues to address. The committee will address them over the coming weeks and we will move onto the next Stage. I thank the witnesses for their participation today and the submissions they made before the meeting.
