The committee has spent much time on this matter in recent weeks. It is an important issue for the farming sector. Today is the committee's final hearing on the matter. We hope our report will be completed in the next couple of weeks. It is evident from our most recent few meetings that there is no silver bullet for the sector, but we hope to ensure that there might be a roadmap for the sector for the future which might be helpful. We often talk about crystal balls. We hope that the crystal ball may be a little clearer when the report is published. The presentations we have heard today will be invaluable and we thank everyone who has attended. We will suspend to allow the next group to take their seats.
