We would have a friction in our views, let us say. We should have a clear idea that children coming through the Irish education system will know about their Stone Age peoples. In the context of migration and the debate around migration, people in Waterford should be saying we that had Stone Age peoples here, then the Vikings founded the city, then the Normans came in and then the Huguenots arrived. If we are talking about migration today, we are talking about a historical process that has a context. I am sorry; that probably amounts more to a comment than a question and I think I have already taken up enough of the committee's time. If the witnesses wish to reply, they are welcome to do so.
