I thank the witnesses for coming before us today. We have had three different groups and they have all given us guidance. Ms Buckley echoed a point made by somebody from IFAC earlier, which was that the original idea of bringing multinationals into Ireland was to create an overspill and grow indigenous companies. We have been successful in the international sector but our indigenous SME sector still needs some work. The contribution of witnesses today will feed into our work.
