We are going to have representatives of a number of other local authorities before the committee. We do not want to let Dublin City Council and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council answer all the questions. On behalf of the committee, I thank Mr. Keegan, Mr. O'Reilly, Ms McNamara, Mr. Curran and Ms Keenan for their attendance. It has been a helpful meeting. To reiterate comments that were made earlier, I ask our guests to thank the housing staff in both their organisations. It is one of the most stressful and difficult sections of a local authority in which to work. They have helped thousands of people over the years. They have helped us to help thousands of people over the years. I ask our guests to pass on that appreciation to them.
