Having considered the content of this petition, I propose that the committee is of the view that there are certain merits attached to it and that we wish to endorse its content. We note the fact that the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform recommended in its report a certain course of action to the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. I propose that we contact the Minister to endorse the content of Mr. Kelly's petition and to request that it be taken on board.
