I thank Professor Quinn very much. His contribution was insightful and I believe members all got something from it. We will be referring back to it again as we are charged with the implementation of the UN convention. He has asked some stark questions in his responses for us to follow up on in terms of trying to get answers from the Government, which we will be doing. I ask him to keep in contact with us. We will revert to him on a number of occasions looking for clarification on points and so forth. I congratulate Professor Quinn and wish him every success in his new role. We look forward to working with him.

I thank everyone for their engagement today. Let us keep it going. Our committee stands adjourned until our next meeting on Wednesday, 25 November. We will have a private meeting first and then move to our other business.
