I am pleased to have the opportunity to address the joint committee and thank it for the invitation to attend. The committee listed five specific items on today's agenda. I will address the committee's queries on the responsibilities and status of Comhar na nOileán, the West Cork Development Partnership and the proposed Mary Robinson centre in Ballina. The Minister of State, Deputy Kyne, will address the committee on the ferry service to Inis Mór and the 2017 budget for the Irish language. I am happy to take questions now, if the committee wishes to deal with each one separately.
