I thank the witnesses for their report, opening statement and presentation, and for taking questions. The responses were enlightening and informative. The issue of habitual residency is certainly something the committee will take seriously. We will do some further research on the number of cases in particular because that is interesting. It is unusual for somebody to turn around here and say that he or she made 12 appeals, all of which were successful. That underlines the fact that there is an issue. Deputy Brady is no different from myself. We all assist constituents in making appeals, which are not all successful. We might have a good return, but it is not 100%. Therefore, 12 out of 12 is an unusual figure. We will certainly do further investigative work on that. I thank the witnesses for their attendance.
