Arising from the correspondence received on the matter and the suggestion that a senior counsel be appointed, it is clear that the investigation is to be limited to procurement issues. I agree with Deputy Deasy that we should write to the Minister to suggest that, given the circumstances and range of the complaints involved, the senior counsel's investigation should extend beyond the procurement aspects. It would not do any harm to note our concerns about the allegations and the children involved, who are young adults now. Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 3A.1 is correspondence dated 23 June received from Ms Jacinta Stewart, CEO of City of Dublin Education and Training Board and SUSI following our meeting of 11 June 2015. No. 3A.3 is related as both refer to the appointment of an outsourced service provider, Abtran. Perhaps Mr. McCarthy would like to comment on that issue?
