Those of us who, in previous lives, have been councillors have experienced the delays put on local authorities by Departmental fiat. My concern is perhaps more about the roadblocks up there, as opposed to anything which the individual local authorities are doing. I might leave that one there, because I am straying off topic.

That is the end, unless there is anyone online? No. I thank the witnesses for their informative and meaningful engagement with the members this afternoon, and I wish to propose that the opening statements be published on the Oireachtas website. Is that agreed? Agreed. As such, the meeting now stands adjourned until Tuesday, 13 June.
