I thank the Minister. I know the past two weeks have not been easy but I want to say to the Minister, and I know she has said this on a number of occasions, that our concerns are very much with the families affected by the attack on 23 November. We hope for a speedy recovery for everyone. I wanted to express that on behalf of the committee, and I know it is something which has been expressed before.

I thank the Minister for coming to the committee today and for taking time to answer the questions from members. We appreciate her time and her attendance. I propose that we publish the Minister's opening statement on the website. Is that agreed? Agreed.
