I congratulate the Cathaoirleach and welcome fellow members to this very important committee. I look forward to working with everyone. It is always encouraging to see more women in these Houses and in politics. The gender balance has been won by the women on this committee. The committee plays a vital role in shaping policies that affect the most vulnerable people - children, young people, carers and families. I am optimistic that, together, we can make real progress.

Will we get time later on to discuss our work programme this year?
