I thank the witnesses for their presentation. I am very concerned about students who are going directly into the leaving certificate cycle without knowing what their results are, which has an impact in terms of choices. As has been said, we obviously have an ongoing issue in terms of late results, which reduces students' ability to take up opportunities across the island and in Britain. This is not something that has just happened. It is something that has been there all of the time. What efforts have been made to bridge that gap so people have their results on time, and how come other countries can do it and we cannot?
