That concludes the meeting. I thank Mr. Cussen and his team from the Office of the Planning Regulator and Ms Buckley and her team from An Bord Pleanála for having taken a half day out of their incredibly busy schedules and workloads. I know the workload just builds up as they are here and they have to get back to it. The committee acknowledges the incredible work both organisations do and the role they have to play in the future planning of this country and all we have to do. We have another eight meetings on this legislation to go. We expect to produce a report by the end of March and we will ensure the witnesses are issued with copies. If any recommendations spring to mind from the discussions today, they should feel free to write to us and we can consider whether to include those in the report.
