If it is covered in our most recent periodic report, we will receive a minute from the Department. It is not off our desk completely in that regard.

The next item is statements and accounts received since the last meeting. We will move through this relatively quickly. I want to get these issues dealt with because if they are not, there will be a build-up for next week, the following week and every other week. The statements and accounts are before the committee. There is nothing major therein for discussion, apart from one unusual item. The first item is the National Library of Ireland, which has been given a clear audit opinion. The Royal Irish Academy of Music has also been given a clear audit opinion, as has the Cork Institute of Technology. Sligo Institute of Technology has been given a clear audit opinion but attention is again drawn to a severance payment which we dealt with in our most recent report.
