First, I am delighted to see some very familiar faces in the room as well as some new faces. I thank every member, from the bottom of my heart, for committing to be on this Joint Committee on the Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community. There is some unfinished work. In the previous Dáil the committee had a brilliant Chairman, the former Senator Colette Kelleher, who started a great deal of work. I thank her for all her hard work. I also thank the Ceann Comhairle for establishing this special committee. We look forward to tackling some of the inequality and issues that impact on the Traveller community, and I look forward to working with all the members. I propose that the committee go into private session. Is that agreed? Agreed.
