I thank the witnesses for attending and sending us their submissions and opening statements beforehand. Listening to all of them has been inspiring. As legislators with an interest in this area, we are conscious of the level of work that is required. We will take the opportunity to consider the witnesses' recommendations. I thank them for making those, as it is good to get practical suggestions. We will have an opportunity to present to the Minister and the Department. We may also have an opportunity to initiate a debate in the Dáil Chamber.

I thank the witnesses for their time, contributions and insights. They are the experts whereas we are just learning, trying to put a framework around what is required and trying to make recommendations.
