It is the Department of Education that we have before us tomorrow evening. On foot of the witnesses’ appearance here, I believe they should write to the Joint Committee on Health in respect of those specific issues. I am not trying to pass the buck. We will write to the health committee as well, if that is agreed by the members, to say that this issue was raised at the committee. To further strengthen the case of the organisations, they might write to the Chairman or the secretariat of the health committee. The members are often not informed of this.

Has there ever been an interdepartmental group with all of the agencies working together instead of separately?
