I thank both witnesses for their appearance today. I have read their submission which effectively asks this committee to support the recommendations from Amnesty International Ireland for the Irish EU Presidency. Having read them all, I find there is no recommendation with which I disagree. However, I need some illumination on some issues.

I will start with human rights defenders. This committee has met members of an organisation called Human Rights Defenders, who I believe were based in Dún Laoghaire.
