I thank the witnesses for coming in today and giving us very comprehensive opening statements. It was good to listen to them and to hear that they think the legislation is, overall, excellent. The aim of the committee is to see human rights compliant legislation introduced. We believe the Mental Health Act is outdated. We are very happy to be doing the pre-legislative scrutiny on this. Again, I thank everyone. Our meeting is now adjourned sine die.
