I sincerely apologise for not being here earlier. I will look back at the contributions made. I have had the opportunity to read the reports. What I have read is very informative, but the lived experience of the people who have appeared in front of the committee is key. There are programmes, but access and information are the big problems. I mentioned during the last session that we needed representatives of possible and potential employers at a meeting such as this because I believe we need to work with prospective employers on perceived barriers.
