I apologise for being late. I had another meeting. While I do not want to go back over ground that my colleagues have covered, I would like to get the witnesses' views on students and education in Europe. What are their views on education, going to college in other European countries and following on to relevant work experience, etc.? What positive or negative effects might play out with regard to the future of Europe? What can be done to assist this? As my colleague, Senator Leyden, suggested earlier, it is a very worthwhile and important process for the engagement of young people through different European connections at different levels. It is important for their own experience and progression. What do we need to do to ensure that it is continued or opened up further? What concerns do we need to focus on?
