That concludes my line of questioning. I thank the witnesses for their participation. It has been a very insightful, interesting and timely discussion. I hope that from the ideas and suggestions the witnesses have raised today, we can do something to address the issue in a proactive way. On behalf of the committee, I thank them all for their participation and their opening statements. It has been a long session but a fruitful one. Slán gach duine.

That concludes the business of the joint committee for today. We will adjourn until Wednesday, 15 December 2021, when we will meet in private session at 11.30 a.m. via Teams.
