I thank the witnesses for coming in today and for their work. I wish to discuss the neurological piece. The committee heard from the Neurological Alliance of Ireland, NAI, in the past few months. I will ask a few questions in order to keep its concerns at the forefront of our work. Mr. Gloster mentioned that a national mapping process which will inform the 2025 Estimates has been undertaken. Organisations like the NAI invest significant time and resources in identifying service gaps. Delays in finalising the mapping process could hinder these efforts, particularly as they prepare their pre-budget submissions. Will the witnesses clarify the current stage of the mapping process and when it is expected to be complete? Will the witnesses share any other insights gained from the process so far?
