I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their badly needed work in this challenging area. I visited Spring Lane a number of years when I was a Minister of State and representative for the area. I agree that it needs considerable work. I have never seen anything as demanding or bad. I wish Mr. Geaney luck with moving on in that regard.

Public consultation and Part 8 have been mentioned. When is the public consultation going to start and is there a time limit on it? When will the Part 8 consideration be put to members for a vote?
