I thank our guests. It is great to have them here. To follow on from Deputy Tully, Mr. Lennon is saying the centre needs a serious increase in the level of resources or else policy changes and that that is where the difficulties, as regards there being no Executive and the problems with the North-South Ministerial Council, come into play. Even though there is no minister in the North, can everything else operate as was previously the case? Mr. Lennon also spoke about engaging with the departments. How does that work at this point?
