I thank Mr. Aughey on behalf of the committee and Senator Gallagher, who put us all in contact. The past hour's meeting was engaging and worthwhile. I have learned much about the potential for rail connectivity between the North and South. It is an exciting prospect. I thank Mr. Aughey for his time. Our committee will issue its interim report next month so we will touch on this issue in the report. We will take on board the points that Mr. Aughey has raised and the matters that he would like us to raise further up the line with all the political parties and none that are represented on the committee.

Our next meeting is tomorrow morning. We will engage with the European Commissioner for Financial Stability, Financial Services and the Capital Markets Union, Mairead McGuinness.
