That is great. I thank our guests for their attendance today. It has been helpful. One thing that became apparent during this session and in previous engagements is that homeowners still have many questions. As a committee, we are probably going to invite those question from those groups, write to the Department and try to get a response.

In respect to the reporting and further investigation and research the Department is doing, I am conscious that such a level of new research can unearth stuff that requires more questions to be asked. If we could be kept up to date on the progress in that regard, it would be helpful.

The committee gets quarterly updates from, for example, the Land Development Agency, LDA. We have requested the same of An Bord Pleanála. It would be helpful for the committee to get a quarterly update broken down to include commencements, inspections, transitionals and all of that. It would be helpful for committee members.
