Absolutely. I will finish on the Senator's point. The point was made that juries could not possibly sit every week of the year but they do in every Circuit Court in Ireland for criminal trials and in the Criminal Courts of Justice. I will not express a view on that but I make that observation as one of fact.

This was a very useful hearing.
