I wish to come back on that point. Having been a member of the previous housing committee, and I think Deputy Ó Broin would agree, on many occasions we sought and included the opinion on the trust on the issues of housing and homelessness. It is a fact that we had far more interaction with the Peter McVerry Trust on those issues of housing and homelessness than we ever had on this issue. I will correct that from that perspective. The views were always welcome. We always felt that the trust had a significant insight into that area as well.

The witnesses mentioned 17 points of the agreement with the Department in regards to 17 actions that were in progress. Could they just clarify how active the engagement is with the Department on those 17 actions? Is there reporting back each quarter? What does the reporting on those look like?
