They are on their way. The next item is an issue mentioned by Deputy Cullinane, who was seeking information on the capital project for a national paediatric hospital in Thornton Hall. We will return to that report again. We wrote to Dublin Institute of Technology regarding the €700,000 advance payment in respect of library services for which no service was delivered - the money was lost to the taxpayer - but we have not yet received a response. We also wrote to the Department of Jobs, Innovation and Enterprise regarding the policy on late payment. Different State organisations are paying interest on late payments of outstanding accounts. We have received no word back yet. We did receive correspondence on the land aggregation scheme as sought by one of the committee's members. That was all arising out the minutes. We will move on.
