I am going to start my questioning now but I am conscious that, as there is an vote upcoming in the Seanad, we may need to suspend for a short while. I will start anyway.

First, I thank the witnesses for being here. This is an important and timely meeting. There is quite a bit of jargon which the witnesses are all very familiar with. I will try to get familiar with it but not all of it is as familiar to me as it might be to the witnesses. I had not heard the phrase "edge devices" before. Maybe that is my own fault. What are edge devices, as such?
