Ms Síona Cahill:

I will endeavour to be brief as I go through the queries. The SMART consent piece is covered in our written submission. I just did not refer to it in the three minutes I had. We are supportive of and have worked with NUIG on the SMART consent model, its feedback and how to progress it since its inception. A message I want to hammer home is that initiatives have been successful on institutes' campuses where they have collaborated with student leaders and student unions, which is something that the SMART consent model has done.

Regarding culture and norms, it is a fact that there are different conceptions and understandings in different countries and cultures regarding consent and the related language.
