I will come in very quickly on something Mr. Crowley said. The witnesses have laid it all out in respect of the frightening vista, the necessity for action and that if leadership can lead, we can get to a better place. That will deal with some of the major issues that we are dealing with currently, and that goes without saying. My point around conflict was to take it out of the equation. Even where there is no confict, there are still significant issues. I accept that those issues are multiplied and worsened when there is conflict. It impacts on all of us globally, but particularly the people in those desperate circumstances. Go raibh maith agaibh go léir.
