I agree with Jonny. One of the great things that we have done early doors in the Committee — Mr Brett is not here at the moment, but he has been supportive of this — is the fact that we are going to have a joint session with the Education Minister and the Economy Minister.

To ask the Minister of Health for an update on the implementation of recommendations made in the Review of Provision of Cancer Services for Teenagers and Young Adults in Northern Ireland 2023.
