I thank Ms Collier. I am heartened by the response from the OPW. As a follow-up, perhaps I could link up with Ms Collier after the meeting and we could arrange for the western team and the landowner in question to meet, most favourably and probably most practically on the island itself when the weather improves. I will not suggest a meeting in the next 48 hours - that would not be best - but when the weather improves we might arrange a visit to Inchcleraun and a meeting with the landowner. He has inspiring plans for what he wants to do there and they are all for the betterment not only of the island and of heritage but of the people generally. I will follow up with Ms Collier on that after the meeting. I thank the witnesses.
