I thank Mr. Dagg and I thank Deputy Mythen for the question. I thank the Commissioner and Mr. Dagg for joining us. Much of what they have shared with us today could certainly be applied to our work in Ireland. Of course, the three "P"s of prevention, protection and proactive change provide some really good highlights for us to use. I hope we can protect our citizens as Australia has done so well. We have just 5 million people compared with Australia's 26 million, but we have work to do in order to protect them. We certainly intend to deliver on that. I thank the witnesses for joining us from the other side of the world today. I thank colleagues for their participation in the meeting. I say "slán" to gach duine.
