If I may, I would like to share a minute. That expertise is valuable. It should be brought here and we should take account of it. We should take account of minorities and we should increase accountability. We might look to the cultural and educational panel, which I believe accounts for eight Senators, to see whether a new constituency can be fitted in there that would represent the third level sector, as befits a society where 70% of school-leavers participate in same.
I thank the Taoiseach for attending.
