I mentioned earlier that somebody had written to the committee. I will clarify that. Apparently, Mr. Frank Fox, of the Department of Education and Skills, has the spreadsheet in respect of the queries that have been raised.

It has been pointed out that some of these are legal matters but they are not raised or considered to be of issue legally in terms of the person who raised them. Will Mr. Owens check and determine the current position in order to let us know? Perhaps somebody in the Department of Education and Skills can assist him. Deputy Perry raised the issue of expenses and the figure I have seen is €27,000 in one year. Will the witness provide clarification on that? That is the best way to do it.
