Often, as the Minister knows, we ask her to brief the committee on certain items post hearing. In the course of that engagement, it struck me that that might be useful. A number of case studies were teased out, such as someone coming from a third country to an EU country and on to Ireland, and someone coming through different routes or different paths and whether the decision is positive or negative when they ultimately are processed here. I do not know if it would be possible for the Department to put together a couple of little case studies or use cases such as those for the consideration of the committee.

That might assist with our deliberations next week. It might be helpful to the committee to have a note on that if possible. It certainly brings it to life to see a path through the system.

The next speaker is Deputy Ó Laoghaire, to be followed by Senator Ruane, Deputy Pringle, Deputy Costello and Senator Gallagher. Then we will move on to the guests. People will know when to expect to be called.
