I have submitted a motion to the Vice Chairman, which states: "This committee calls on the CIÉ board to fund an independent legal opinion for the CIÉ workers on issues relating to their pension schemes prior to any WRC hearing." I have received a note from the clerk to the committee saying that, although we do not take motions without notice, we can write to the Minister expressing the sentiments of the committee if the committee agrees to that proposal. I accept that note in good faith and I propose that we write to the Minister. I might then submit a motion for the next meeting to make that a formal position of the committee. Can I have agreement on that?
