Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the 11th meeting in 2017 of the Social Security Committee. I remind everyone to turn off their mobile phones and other devices, or set them to silent mode, so that they do not disrupt the meeting. Apologies have been received from Mark Griffin, and Richard Leonard is here to substitute for Mark. Thank you for that, Richard.
