That concludes this part of the meeting. I thank the Minister and Minister of State for answering questions.
Members will know that Deputy Kirk has been appointed vice-Chairman of the British-Irish Interparliamentary Body and has therefore resigned as vice-Chairman of this committee. I pay tribute to him for his time as vice-Chairman. He accompanied me on a visit to Stormont some weeks ago and we had a useful exchange there and he will continue to serve as a member of this committee. I thank him for his contribution and congratulate him on his appointment to his new position. I invite nominations for vice-Chairman.
