I thank the Minister of State. We have a two and a half hour slot. We have followed the rota, as agreed. We want to allocate equal time to each group on that rota to ensure that every member can get in and ask questions, but we are limited by the slot provided, which is two and a half hours. It is open to the committee to re-engage with HIQA. As we said to its representatives this morning, we may invite them back for another engagement. Equally, we may engage with the Minister of State again on this issue because I know members have more questions. I hope members will understand that we moved through the rota in the agreed way and provided time adequately and fairly to each group, as was agreed.
