I thank the Chairman. I welcome and thank Mr. O'Brien and his colleagues. I thank the HSA for the hugely important work done by its employees. Every day, week and year they save lives and prevent injuries, etc. As the chief executive said, we cannot forget there are families, children, etc., behind all the statistics. We all know of cases where people were injured or died in the workplace. On the work done by the HSA, am I right in saying that the culture has changed? There was a time when people felt that it will be all right and we will get on with it, etc.
