I appreciate that. I thank Mr. Cronin, Dr. Ó Cadhla, Dr. O’Higgins and Mr. O’Connor for their engagement in this three-hour session. It has been helpful and informative for members. I also thank them for the considerable work they put into getting this proposal to this stage. Members appreciate it and we will not delay in playing our part in enacting this legislation in order that we can protect our seas and restore our precious marine environment. I also thank members for their attendance.
