That is a great idea. What we have garnered from this morning's discussion is that far more unites us than divides us. There is a desire across all parties and none for continued and further engagement. There are many issues to delve into and it is difficult to deal comprehensively with all of those in a two-hour timeframe.
I thank Mr. McGrath, Ms Anderson and Ms Sheerin on behalf of our committee for being available this morning. It is much appreciated. I thank both clerks for all of their hard work behind the scenes to make this happen. I suggest to Mr. McGrath that it might be easier for us to go to his committee next time. If his committee would like to extend an invitation to us, it might make it easier for us to engage with all colleagues on his committee. I will leave that with him because obviously he will want to run that by his own members to get agreement. I have no doubt that that would be agreed on our side. We would love to reciprocate what Mr. McGrath has facilitated this morning. We will leave it to the clerks to engage on that and await Mr. McGrath's response.
