The next item is a letter from Deputy McGuinness, Chairman of the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform and Taoiseach, stating that committee is looking at the Paradise Papers and the issue of corporation tax. We have noted it. We are carrying on with our work. There is a chapter in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report on corporation tax. It is our duty to follow that.

No. 927C is correspondence dated 17 November from Deputy McDonald. I am told we are holding that over. We will come back to it. There is a related item.

No. 928C is correspondence dated 1 November from an individual questioning the public funds that are used in the National Women's Council of Ireland. The body receives a significant amount of money from the Exchequer. I propose that we write to the National Women's Council of Ireland for a note on the matter. I am unsure what the particular query is but we will send the council an information note.
