We have had good participation. I record my thanks to Ms Buckley, Ms Baxter, Mr. Kirrane, Mr. Gunning, Ms Sandom and Mr. Sinclair for attending. That concludes our series of hearings. We have received in the order of 140 written submissions and had the opportunity on Friday to visit a direct provision centre. Over the summer we will prepare our report for publication in the early autumn post the summer recess. On behalf of the committee, I thank each of our guests for their attendance and participation. I remind members that the select committee will meet at 12 noon.
