Dr. Chris Horn:

Should the committee reconvene? Possibly so. I think that would be at the invitation of the Government. Perhaps the first item, if the committee were to reconvene, would be to review the recommendations that were made and the current status of their implementation one way or the other.

Moving on to the Senator's comments on winning new customers in the current environment of testing and travel, I think the question is this: if we have various actions such as the green list, quarantining and better test and trace, does it address or help to address overall the issue of how the business community can travel to extend and grow its businesses? That is the fundamental issue I see from the sector with which I am most familiar.

Finally, in fact, our last meeting was on 30 July, not 10 July. On 10 July we met the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, and the Minister of State, Deputy Naughton. On 30 July we met the secretary of the Government and other senior officials. I personally have not had any interaction with the Government since 30 July, to answer the Senator's question.
