Most of the questions have been asked. I thank the witnesses for their in-depth analysis. What we are talking about here is Ireland Inc. on the dissection table. It is that serious. The loss of the industry is unthinkable. I have questions for the witnesses. They have said there was an independent economic impact assessment. When exactly do they expect that to be finished?

We all know that food security is so important. It is important as energy. This committee will support the witnesses every way we can. Having said that, I would like to ask the industry what has it done in terms of innovation, or improvements within the industry, to improve water quality and cut down on the nitrates?
