I apologise. I have only just gotten into Leinster House and I think some of the questions I had have already been covered. I will follow up on one or two. I thank our witnesses for coming in this morning. The purpose of this Bill in driving service improvement for the service user is very much appreciated. I have no doubt about it, considering what has been going on in recent years. In the Department's opening statement, it was mentioned that once issues are identified by the chief inspector, proportionate penalties must be imposed. Will additional supports or resources be provided to ensure that any adverse impacts on residents are addressed promptly? I ask the witnesses to forgive me if they have already answered that question.
