have the words in front of us so that we actually look pretty good. So thank you to Janice for that work also.

Can I finally extend my thanks to the professionals in the departments that I have responsibility for. I thank all of them, from the chief executives down, for the advice and support they have provided to me as minister over the past 12 months, in particular for the work they do in delivering services across the wide range of functions I have responsibility for.

Finally, can I express my thanks to the people who work in my office? I will not name them by name, but they collectively do an outstanding job in supporting my activities as minister, often in very difficult and demanding circumstances. Overall, their good humour and forthrightness is much appreciated by me and I extend to them by best wishes for a safe and peaceful break.

The Assembly adjourned at 5.55 pm until Tuesday, 14 February 2006, at 10.30 am.
