It will be for Governments in the Intergovernmental Conference to make decisions and reach final conclusions. However, the outcome of the convention will be highly significant. I am pleased to be representing Ireland as the Government representative. I also pay tribute to the Oireachtas representatives, Deputies Pat Carey, John Bruton and John Gormley, and Proinsias De Rossa MEP, who are playing an extraordinary role and have given a huge amount of time and energy. Sadly, their active role has not always been appropriately recognised.
