I thank everyone for their contributions. It has been a very constructive meeting. I want to comment on recommendation 1 in A Call for Change, which is about demonstrating leadership and building cross-sectoral support for change. We need to action that and mobilise institutional leaders, key talent and public figures in the arts to speak publicly about the immediate need for change. I would like the call to go out from this committee to key talent in the music, traditional music and folk music industry to speak publicly in support of the women and men and the need for cultural change across the arts.
