I refer back to the opening statement which clearly outlines that the key concerns presented to the committee by various stakeholders during the consultation process will be taken on board. On behalf of the Minister of State, Deputy Jim Daly, I thank the members of the Joint Committee on the Future of Mental Health Services for their work. Many people's voices were heard and what they said will be taken into account in the new revised version of A Vision for Change. I do not have anything to add about the committee being put back in place. The structures were clearly set out at the beginning and it was agreed that the committee would be dissolved in 2018, which is what happened. I am sure the Senator and others will pursue the matter through other avenues in the long term.
