Is that agreed? Agreed. Proceeding with correspondence, No. 3C is individual correspondence and complaints. As Deputy McDonald is not present for this morning, Nos. 3C.1 and 3C.2 will be deferred again.

No. 3C.3 is correspondence received on 25 September 2012 from Ms Kay Kearney, Glanmire, County Cork, re public sector allowances. This is to be noted.

No. 3C.4 is correspondence, dated on 25 September, from Ms Maria Brophy, Enniscorthy, County Wexford, re public sector allowances. This is to be noted.

No. 3C.5 is correspondence, dated 24 September 2012, from Mr. Thomas Woodbyrne re forwarding correspondence sent to the Private Residential Tenancies Board. This is to be noted.

No. 3C.6 is correspondence, dated 24 September 2012, from Mr. Mal Keaveney, Askeaton, County Limerick, re Limerick greyhound stadium. This is to be noted. While the resolution of this complaint does not fall within the remit of the committee, we should ask Bord na gCon to address these issues directly with the complainant.

No. 3C.7 is correspondence, dated 26 September 2012, from Mr. Hugh Rance, Bantry, County Cork, re County Cork Vocational Education Committee. This is to be noted and a copy of correspondence is to be forwarded to the Department of Education and Skills for direct reply to Mr. Rance. The resolution of this issue is not one that falls within the remit of the committee.

No. 3C.8 is correspondence, dated 28 September 2012, from Ms Martina Healy, Drumkeeran, County Leitrim, re alleged misconduct of school principal. It is confidential and is to be noted. A copy of the correspondence is to be forwarded to the Department of Education and Skills for direct reply. The resolution of this issue is not one that falls within the remit of the committee.

No. 3C.9 is correspondence, dated 2 October 2012, from Mr. John Moriarty, Dublin Waterworld Limited, re information given to the committee at its meeting of 16 February 2012. This is to be noted. This issue relates to the issue raised by Deputy McDonald and we must forward this letter to the Department. At the previous meeting, I raised the issue that we had sent the report to the Ministers concerned. We have not received a reply as yet. Can a reminder be sent to them?
