I welcome the Minister of State. I thank him for his briefing and opening statement. Are we discussing Vote 27 first? Yes. Last week, the committee heard from stakeholders from Christian Aid, Trócaire and Concern. We have met many others over the years. They say there are so many crises at the moment internationally that there is a problem getting things talked about in the media. It would be beneficial if the Minister of State were to speak about the important work going on in Sudan, the Horn of Africa and North Africa. These crises do not usually make it into the normal mainstream. Will he speak about that?
