I thank our three guests for their contributions. I will now proceed to questions from members of the committee. I do not see anybody offering immediately so I will ask Deputy Brady to lead off. Members might indicate their keenness or desire to pose questions thereafter. I am conscious of the fact we have a large number of panellists who will wish to elaborate further on some of the questions that will be asked. It goes without saying that I ask members to be as concise as possible with their questions to our panellists. I will ask Mr. O'Keeffe to distribute the questions among those he feels are best placed to answer.
