Yes. We received that earlier. It can be recirculated.

No. 1173, dated 1 March, is a request for an extension to the tax relief scheme for drivers and passengers with disabilities. This relates to a specific case. It is not a matter for the committee to deal with a specific case. We will just note it.

The next item, No. 1197, is from Professor Patrick O'Shea, University College Cork, in response to information sought by the committee in respect of Cork Opera House. Deputy Alan Kelly, the Vice Chairman, who raised this issue, asked that the matter be held over until the next meeting because he cannot be here today. Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 1208, from Mr. Brendan Ryan, CEO of the Courts Service, concerns information provided in respect of the management accounts associated with the court poor box. The committee had written suggesting the payments made directly to the charity or payments made via the Probation Service be accounted for. The Courts Service points out that this is an area where a judge exercises control and it has no role in the matter. The CEO points out that legislation is expected in this area to bring about consistency or uniformity, or a total reassessment of the court poor box system. That is an issue members can raise at the time in question. We shall note and publish the correspondence.
