I thank the witnesses for providing the information. I know Ms Sharkey wants to come in on this. It is an excellent effort on the part of Deputy Pringle and the witnesses who are supporting the legislation, and my party will support it as much as we can so that it might pass through the Oireachtas as quickly as possible. Hopefully we can have all-party support to send out the clear statement, not only to the ISIF in terms of its investments but also to the world regarding where Ireland stands on this important matter.
