We will formally conclude the matter the next day.

The next item is No. 632C, correspondence dated June 2017 from an individual on the issue of Horse Racing Ireland's proposal to revoke the individual's course betting permit in accordance with the provisions of section 48 of the Irish Horseracing Industry Act 1994. The matter is outside the remit of the committee and I propose to refer it to the Joint Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine as it falls within the latter's remit. It is a policy and legislation issue relating to the relevant Department. That is agreed and noted.

The next item is No. 636C, correspondence dated 27 June from an individual on the issue of the playing fields at Clonkeen College school. The correspondence states that the school has recently been refurbished and the individual understands that the Christian Brothers now wish to sell the playing fields to a developer. Further correspondence was received this morning, one item from an individual and another through Deputy Catherine Murphy's office. We will collate the information and all the correspondence. I propose to write to the Department of Education and Skills seeking a response.I have received several emails on this issue in the past few days.
