The Dáil ordered that the following Revised Estimates for the public services be referred to this committee for consideration: Vote 11- Public Expenditure and Reform; Vote 12 - Superannuation and Retired Allowances; Vote 13 - Office of Public Works; Vote 14 - State Laboratory; Vote 15 - Secret Service; Vote 16 - Valuation Office; Vote 17 - Public Appointments Service; Vote 18 - Shared Services; and Vote 19, Office of the Ombudsman.

I welcome the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Brendan Howlin, and his officials to today's meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to consider the Revised Estimates and the supplementary performance information regarding the outputs and impacts on the programme expenditure. A draft timetable for the meeting has been circulated. Is that timetable agreed?
