Given the day that is in it, I propose that we have a minute's silence in acknowledgement of Emma Mhic Mhathúna whose funeral takes place today. Being the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Health it would be appropriate to do so.

It is for the two women, in particular, the second of whom chose not to go public. We should acknowledge them today.
