I thank the Minister of State and the Senator. I have just one point which I wanted to raise with the Minister of State and this is only because she referred to it in her speech. She will not be shocked to hear that it relates to the autism strategy, in which I have a particular interest. Am I hearing the Minister of State correctly that she is chairing this strategy group, which is a great idea? Does she envisage that it will just be people from the Department who will be involved in this strategy? Will she be consulting groups? Would the Minister of State mind elaborating a little on that point?
