I welcome the witnesses from the RSA and thank them for a great briefing I received recently in Ballina. Anybody who has not been there should make an appointment to go. In light of comments made in the media recently, which I do not want to go into, based on my experience, I can speak about how impressed I am with the organisation, its approach and the professionalism of its team.

I can take the gloves off now having covered that.
