Are the minutes of the meeting of 19 June agreed? Agreed.

The next issue is matters arising from the minutes. The replies on the issue of the compellability requests are being drafted and are not ready for members this morning. I suggest that we meet the parliamentary legal adviser on this at 2.30 p.m. We could not meet her this morning because another meeting was being held. This would help with completing the replies to both queries we received from the Committee on Procedure and Privileges. The parliamentary legal adviser will meet us at 2.30 p.m. after we finish our morning business.

The next item is correspondence received since our meeting of 19 June 2014. No. 3A.1 is correspondence dated 24 April from the Secretary General of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade regarding further information requested at our meeting on 6 March 2014, to be noted and published. No. 3A.2 is correspondence received on 24 June from the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government regarding a reply to Deputy Simon Harris on tendering and value for money regarding the running of elections in Ireland, to be noted and published. Does Deputy Harris wish to comment?
