Do members have any further questions for the Minister? No. I note the apologies of Deputy Catherine Martin for the record. That completes the select committee's consideration of the Revised Estimates for 2016, Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs. On behalf of the committee, I thank the Minister, Deputy Zappone, and her officials for their attendance and for dealing so comprehensively with members' questions and observations. The committee has agreed to invite the Minister to attend the Joint Committee for Children and Youth Affairs in the autumn to examine the proposed allocations to her Department for 2017. It is hoped that this meeting will be scheduled in advance of the 2017 budget allocations. The committee secretariat will correspond with the Department with a view to having documentation submitted to the joint committee before the end of July 2016.
