I thank the Chair. This was a useful engagement. I have taken his points on Local Link. We are to get a report. It might be useful for the answer for the Chair. The Local Link structure was under review for the previous programme for Government commitment. We received that report last year. We had decent engagement with the transport co-ordination units and the report, with recommendations on the current model, is great. It gives a sense of what is done. The Minister of State, Deputy Jerry Buttimer, is looking at the review and will be working with me on this. I would welcome the committee's input into that, particularly that connectivity piece. I have met some of the transport co-ordination units when I have been out and about. We have done a lot but can we improve it on the basis of working on synergies together? I will keep in touch about it.

I thank the Chair for today. I look forward to working with the committee over the course of this Government term. I also thank the committee members. We will respond to the queries from Deputies Daly and Collins which we could not answer today in writing.
