I thank Ms McNelis, Mr. Darby and Mr. McDonnell for appearing in front of us. It was a very good conversation. It is our responsibility now as a committee to get out there how important this is. As Deputy O’Donoghue has said, we must ensure that it does not drag on for another 20 years and that we get movement on a change of legislation or some form of help for people such as our witnesses. Again, I thank them for attending today and wish them the best of luck. We will be in touch.
