Of course. I appreciate that. I thank the Chairman. It is rare that I use up more than my allocated time at this committee. It is fair to say the number of complaints concerning SUSI has gone down substantially in the past 24 months, in particular. Therefore, the Department is to be commended on that work and on the work in general. Having looked at the report, I noted there are very few anomalies and flags raised. I thank Mr. Ó Foghlú for his answers to questions. Most of them were on timing issues, to be frank. Broadly speaking, the Department's work is to be commended.
