Mr. Chair, on that point, I think it should be noted, though, that the global compact does not include internally displaced people, and that is a flaw within it. That is also an explicit purpose for these witnesses to have been invited here: to point that out as part of the flaw. I don't think it should be excluded, Mr. Chair. Perhaps it could be included in both, if you like, but that is one flaw of the global compact that exists.

It is a perceived flaw; I understand that.

Thank you very much. We're going to close this part of the meeting now and move to the business meeting, which is in camera.
