I propose that we write directly to IDA Ireland, saying that we are very concerned about those two notes, regarding the rental agreement and the €1.375 million spend on a judicial review in relation to the decision of the agency to acquire land by compulsory purchase order, which was never followed through on. We should write directly to IDA Ireland seeking a detailed explanation in respect of both items. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Is that the end of the discussion? We also note the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine funds on that list. It is a very small account and is on the schedule in front of members.

There are a number of accounts that have been laid late this week and next week by different organisations. I suggest the clerk have a look at those that are being very late in publishing their accounts and ask for an explanation, such that when we come back in the autumn we will have that information and will not be chasing them up at that stage. Is that agreed? Agreed.
