There is no need for me to repeat everything that has been said and I have the briefing notes that were, helpfully, sent in. I thank our guests for being here and for being so thorough.

It is very disturbing to hear from Mr. McDonnell that the arrangements made by Revenue are not adequate and that while ROS works during the day, there is no facility to work after hours, and that the proposed solution from Revenue is inadequate. This is a key thing for the committee to examine. Will Mr. McDonnell or his colleague elaborate a little on what they see as a proposed workable solution - which Revenue will not provide - so that we could at least make the point and incorporate it in our report and pursue it? I have nothing further to say because I do not believe there is any point in repeating an argument that has been well made already. It is disturbing and we need to respond to it in a very practical way.
