The questions and evidence we have heard this morning have been powerful. It is the lived experience to which we refer at all times. As with our meetings, we are under time constraints but it is really powerful to hear from the witnesses.

Sometimes the evidence that is put before the committee does not get picked up by mainstream media, but a large number of people tune in looking for guidance or hope, and I am mindful of that this morning.
