That is agreed. We will write to them and put them on notice.

No. 2356C is correspondence from an individual, dated 8 August, who has made a detailed submission regarding the financial situation of Irish wind farms. Related to this are Nos. 2368C and 2370C, dated 8 August, correspondence from individuals also requesting the committee to review the submission. We know this matter is not within the remit of the committee as it is a policy matter and the submission refers to activities of EirGrid, which is a commercial semi-State company and is not audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General. The correspondent has specifically requested us not to forward the submission to anybody else. I propose, therefore, to advise the correspondent that the matter is not within our remit and to suggest he correspond with the Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment. We will thank him for the correspondence, which the members have read, but it is not something we can formally deal with because EirGrid and the wind farms are not under the remit of the committee.

Nos. 2358C, 2359C and 2360C constitute correspondence from an individual copying the committee in on correspondence to the solicitors disciplinary tribunal and related to freedom of information provision. There is no specific request to the committee. We will note these items.

No. 2366C is correspondence from an anonymous individual, dated 30 August, alleging improper and illegal conduct at Maynooth University. We have received correspondence from the university regarding the governance matter, and it deals with those types of issues. I propose to write to the university to provide an information note in regard to the specific items. No. 2385C, dated 13 September 2019, is correspondence from Deputy Louise O'Reilly, forwarding a copy of the same letter. We note this item. When we write to the university, we will give it a copy of letter and ask it to respond.
