The arrangement of today's meeting is a meeting with Forfás as part of our first session and an examination of the accounts of Ordnance Survey Ireland, OSI, at noon. Are the minutes of our meeting of 10 October 2013 agreed? Agreed. Do matters arise? No.

We have received correspondence since our meeting on 10 October. No. 3B.1 is correspondence dated 7 October 2013 from Deputy Eoghan Murphy proposing the establishment of a sub-committee to oversee NAMA and related issues. The Deputy is not present today, so we will defer this letter and raise the matter again when he is present to speak on it.

Two reports and statements on accounts have been received since our meeting on 10 October, Nos. 4.1 and 4.2, from the National Sports Campus Development Authority and the National Disability Authority. These are to be noted.
