Everything has been covered. The briefing document was really good. After the first part of last week’s session, I was panicking a little bit about our timeframe. Since then, however, we have had Professor O’Mahony before the committee. We have had the witnesses before us today and the earlier witnesses also. It has been great to see all of this. I think that there are solutions here. It is a matter of putting it all together and legislating for it. In particular, Dr. Wingfield’s experience is invaluable because she is dealing with so much on a daily basis and has been doing so for so long. This is invaluable to the committee in our work, so I thank her very much.
