Yes. We will commit to getting the message across from today's meeting to the Minister. It is imperative that we do that as we all want water quality to improve but we must also ensure that our dairy industry is allowed to continue its sustainable production of food and that our farm family structure is also protected.

On behalf of the committee, I thank all the witnesses for their contributions today on what is a topic of great significance and importance to us. We have committed to conveying the message which we have heard loud and clear here today and at other meetings to the Minister and to get fresh engagement at Brussels level to ensure that we obtain an outcome for this that allows our sustainable method of food production to continue.
