I welcome all the witnesses. Apologies. I was in the Seanad earlier, speaking on a matter, and missed their opening statements. From coming in here today and reading the opening statement, I have learned a lot that I did not know about, was not aware of and do not have experience of. I acknowledge that and the witnesses' advocacy, both personal and professional, with regard to lung fibrosis. The witnesses talked about the register. Obviously people are coming to them as an association, so they have an idea. What is their best guesstimate of how many sufferers there are?
