I thank Dr. Casey, Dr. Hickey and Dr. Mulligan for attending. Their engagement has been very invigorating, interesting and thoughtful. We have learned a lot from their expertise. We really appreciate their time, which is valuable and scarce. It is the rarest commodity there is and we do not have enough of it. I thank all the witnesses. At our next meeting, we will continue to look at the constitutional and legal issues around assisted dying.
