I echo Deputy Doherty's comments about the engagement around this. I can see that best practice was set here around positive engagement with the sector, which made our job of working through amendments and getting them dealt with easier. I thank the Minister of State, her officials and her team for that engagement over the past year. I also thank them for the tone that has been set. It is great to see the Central Bank is playing a role in that also because we all have one agenda here, which is that the credit union movement can be enhanced and work better in the service of its members. We know there are members who want to avail of credit union services and that must be our goal here. The engagement here has been very useful and worthwhile, so I thank everybody for that and I appreciate it.
