I take full blame for moving Ms Sheerin into that negative space because I asked the question. We all hear her frustration. That is quite clear. As Deputy Ó Murchú said, we are a terribly agreeable committee. Our door, gate or window is always open to our political colleagues in the unionist community. It would be great to have them present or engage at a public session of one of our meetings at some time in the future.

It is really important to have everybody around the table when we are talking about issues of concern to everybody. As Chairman, I am very grateful for Mr. McGrath's participation today. We will follow up on the commitment in respect of holding a quarterly meeting. Issues will arise and change but we will try to be as focused as possible. Arís, go raibh maith agaibh uile, agus ádh mór. I thank the members.
