We will seek the information.

No. 3 is correspondence received since our meeting on Thursday, 20 September 2012.

No. 3C is individual correspondence - complaints.

No. 3C1 is correspondence from Mr. Donagh Morgan, assistant secretary, Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. We deferred this at our last meeting. Deputy McDonald is not present again today. She is in the Chamber for the Order of Business and therefore we will defer it again by agreement of the members.

No. 3C2 is correspondence received on 10 September 2012, which is the same matter and we will defer it.

No. 3C3 is correspondence received on 18 September 2012 from Mr. Niall Murphy re Allied Irish Banks. This is to be noted. Mr. Murphy previously wrote to the Committee of Public Accounts in 2012. This letter was forwarded to the Department of Finance and the reply outlined that this matter falls within the remit of the Central Bank and the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement. A copy of the correspondence is to be forwarded to it for direct reply, and Mr. Murphy will be informed accordingly.

No. 3C4 is correspondence dated 21 September 2012 from Mr. William Treacy, Ballybrophy, Portlaoise, County Laois, re the Turf Club and Horse Racing Ireland. That correspondence is to be noted. The committee has written to Mr. Treacy and outlined that the issues raised do not fall within our terms of reference and therefore we cannot pursue the matter any further.
