A vote has been called in Dáil. I thank the staff who do Trojan work, in particular Professor Gallagher for his lead. We are here as Members of the Oireachtas but we must also represent the voice of the patient. We are speaking about people with a need and requirement and I thank the witnesses for coming before the committee this morning. I apologise to those witnesses who did not have an opportunity to contribute. We will come back to this issue in February or March.
