I just want to say that, as a family, we have had very positive experiences with the GAA and Croke Park and, locally, our clubs are great. It is the community wrapping itself around people. Qualitatively, when things in disability can be quite challenging and bleak in many cases, what the witnesses' organisations provide is hugely positive.

I have to go into the health committee, so forgive me for leaving in a little while, but I thank the witnesses.
