I thank the witnesses for coming in. The perspective we are coming from is that we have to have a balance between people's human rights and the use of AI. One observation I will make is that there was no mention of human rights anywhere in the opening statements. It was mentioned that no community was being left behind. Last week, we had Age Action Ireland, ALONE, and the Irish Senior Citizens Parliament before the committee. What safeguards are in place to prevent bias and to protect citizens' data?
