We will hold it over for discussion at the next meeting. We have noted it, we did have some discussion on it, but the question we must deal with next week is whether we give parliamentary privilege to publishing the full document.

No. 1638 B from Mr. Martin Bourke, assistant secretary, Office of Public Works, comprising a property services agreement regarding accommodation for the Department of Health at Miesian Plaza in Baggot Street, Dublin. We discussed this at the meeting last week and we are formally noting it today.

No. 1640 B is from Mr. Timothy Owens, chief executive, Cork ETB, who is replying to our further request for information regarding their employment policies and whether they have a policy preventing people with whom they have reached a legal settlement. Mr. Owens says that there is no general policy and that the matter being referred to was discussed at a meeting of the Committee of Public Accounts in July 2015. I will ask the clerk to the committee to circulate this to members, indicating the relevant pages. We can give the committee a report on what was said at the previous meeting. We do not want to rehash the same matter.
