I thank the Minister for coming before the committee today. This has been an ongoing issue for some time. It is quite clear that the issue goes back to well before the Deputy's time as Minister. People have come to me, I do not know if you could call it both sides, but people with different views on what the problems are in Inland Fisheries Ireland. I have taken the approach that one must be objective about this. It is people's livelihoods and jobs. As the Minister said, due process must take place. I have looked for due process consistently and that everybody feels either heard or that there are no issues around contracts of employment, for instance. Does the Minister believe his Department has done everything according to good practice and due process?
