I thank the witnesses for coming before the committee. It has been very beneficial to the members to hear both their points of view. I am excited and think there is a huge opportunity here. It is up to us as public representatives of all parties to take it. As a committee, we work well together here with the one goal which is to make sure we improve the lives of young children or adults with autism. I know that is something both witnesses are doing and have been doing for a long number of years. I say well done to them and I look forward to working with them both in making sure we can implement some of the projects we have discussed here today. I thank them.

I forgot to mention that we had received apologies from Senator Róisín Garvey. Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan was on the call but had to go into another meeting at the time we tried to call him. That concludes our business. The committee is now adjourned.
