I will echo everyone else's remarks. I am delighted to be on the committee and to be working with everyone. I look forward to working with the team. Congratulations to Deputy Lahart on getting the role of Cathaoirleach. It is a time of great global crisis. There are many conflicts across the world, including many forgotten crises that do not get enough attention, so I hope we can give some consideration to those, as well as the urgent crisis with aid cuts and the impact that will have on so much of the work that Ireland has been doing overseas. That is something I will be interested in discussing. We will get onto agenda points later. I am excited to be on the committee.
