The witnesses are being clear about some policy solutions, and we have talked quite clearly about the consensus around the 11-plus. We are still in a bit of a mess. We are in an interim. We have not replaced it. We have a series of different systems in the education sector, and I do not know if we will ever get political consensus on that in the North, unfortunately. What are the other policy levers that could make the difference and are currently available to the Executive? It is currently sitting. Let us hope it sits for a while without more instability or lack of governance. What are the key policy levers that the witnesses think could close that gap?
