Let me be very clear, Mr. Dolan. You are brought before the committee within specific parameters to talk about your agency. This is the first time the committee is doing this and we are interested to hear what you say. Can you give us a broad picture of the Disability Federation of Ireland? To begin with, how many disability groups are there in the country, and what percentage of them are service providers and what percentage are advocacy agencies?
