They are, but the fact that they are here, and I realise it is only for a short time, means they are involved in dealing with pan-European issue. They are our future and in the context of what Ms Doyle said, I hope those young people, some of whom, statistically, will sit as Members in this House or the other House at some time in the future, will address the issues she has brought up about old attitudes. She talked about the permanent representatives and the way they brief Ministers. That appears to be part of our political culture, that the Executive rules and the Dáil and Seanad disposes.
