Is Senator O'Loughlin there? No. Senators Mullen and Flynn and Deputies Nolan, Jim O'Callaghan and Pádraig O'Sullivan have also left.
I want to thank the Minister and the Minister of State and their officials for coming before us virtually today. I ask both Ministers to give a written reply to the questions that were asked late through the secretariat, which we can pass on to the members.
The discussion has been both beneficial and informative for members, and I hope, for the Minister and Minister of State as well. I have no doubt that we will have them and their officials back in before the committee in the not-so-distant future. We would like to call both of them back in on a number of issues, specifically, the Minister on the leaving certificate. I will adjourn the meeting until Thursday, 11 March 2021 at 11.30 a.m. for a private meeting on Microsoft Teams. Do the Minister or Minister of State wish to add anything before I close the meeting?
