No problem. Nos. 974B and 980B are two items of correspondence from multinational companies which I propose we hold over for the moment and come back to when we have all of the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 975Bis from Ms Carol Hanney, chief executive of the City of Dublin ETB and is dated 7 December 2017. It provides follow-up as requested by the committee at the meeting with the ETBs on 16 November 2017. The information provided includes a breakdown of fees and travel expenses; a note on the key performance indicators in place and how they are managed and; a note on the training provided to staff at the level of higher executive officer and upwards and school principals on corporate governance. Is it agreed that we note and publish this? Agreed.

No. 976B is from Ms Angela Black, chief executive of the Citizens Information Board, and is dated 8 December 2017. It is in relation to information requested by the committee regarding the restructuring of the Money Advice & Budget Service, MABS. In summary, the decision to restructure MABS into eight regional companies was made on 15 February 2017, following a feasibility study in September 2014 and a decision by the board in November 2014 to restructure MABS and citizen information services to provide better governance arrangements for 51 MABS services and 42 citizen information service companies across the country.

According to the note, service users will not see any change in the services they receive and they will go to the same place, be looked after by the same people and get the same level of service as they currently receive. Deputy Aylward raised the matter but he is not present. Does anyone else wish to comment?
