It is a much longer and comprehensive document, and I thank Dr. Healy for it. I take his point that we have limited the group today to a certain amount of chapters because the breadth of the commission's report was so great. Also, as it turns out, it has been the subject of great interest to come to this committee, perhaps because we did not have a forum within which to discuss this report to such a degree before. We are, therefore, receiving many requests from groups to come before the committee to talk about the report, so if we can fit Social Justice Ireland in again to attend before the committee, we certainly will.

I invite Dr. Micheál Collins from UCD to make his opening statement.
