We have followed up on the matter but we have not yet received a response. Is it agreed to note and publish this correspondence? Agreed.

Correspondence 1688 B is from Mr. Neil McDermott, system funding, Higher Education Authority, dated 26 October 2018 providing clarifying information in regard to the Waterford IT review which was discussed at our meeting on 18 October 2018. Is it agreed to note and publish this correspondence? Agreed.

Correspondence 1691 B isfrom Professor Sarah Glennie, director, National College of Art and Design, dated 25 October 2018 providing follow-up notes requested by the committee on its non-competitive procurement, governance compliance and the discontinuance of the HR management project. There were a lot of issues surrounding the financial reporting and corporate governance of this organisation, but it appears to be making a major effort now in this regard.

Can we agree to publish it? I will ask the secretariat to redact some items because it deals with staff who are named in the appendix. We might just exclude the appendix and I hope the report will be sensible without it. We will not put staff names in the public arena. I will ask the secretariat to publish what is fair and reasonable. I have a copy of it here. We will not publish staff names.
