I have received apologies from Ms Michelle Gildernew, MP, MLA, Lady Silvia Hermon, MP, Ms Naomi Long, MP, Mr. Mark Durkan, MP, and Ms Margaret Ritchie, MP, MLA. I remind all those present, including those in the public gallery to ensure their mobile telephones are completely switched off for the duration of the meeting. It is not sufficient to have them on silent mode.
