I welcome the witnesses. I tabled some parliamentary questions in advance of this session so I have a breakdown of response times by region and so on, which I will reference. Mr. Keeley said a few moments ago that the Dublin Fire Brigade's ambulance services are not hitting the standards that are required. That is quite a stark statement. I do not blame him or his staff, who are obviously doing their best. Would he accept that not meeting the standards is unacceptable in the first instance?
